Give the Gift of Confidence This Christmas
Every child deserves to read with confidence.
Right now, thousands of children in Australia are struggling with literacy.
How Story Dogs Changes the Story
Every week, over 600 volunteer dog teams sit alongside more than 3,300 children in classrooms across Australia.
- No pressure.
- No red pen.
- Just a friendly dog, a caring volunteer, and the space to try.
When a child reads to a Story Dog, the fear melts away.
Confidence blossoms. And page by page, story by story, their future begins to change.
