Read Conmigo, the Infinity Auto Insurance program to enrich the bilingual learning environment for every family.

Read Conmigo, the Infinity Auto Insurance program to enrich the bilingual learning environment for every family.:

Read Conmigo (http://readconmigo.org/library), the parent-focused literacy program that promotes reading by providing parents free, bilingual books to help improve the learning environment in their home.
Read Conmigo launched last year, and has already distributed more than 70,000 free books to Latino families and to educators.
The program targets parents and grandparents who might be hesitant to read out loud to their children at home, for fear of only being able to read to them in Spanish. Read Conmigo aims to educate communities in need, helping them understand the value of fostering a positive reading culture at home (and to realize that bilingual reading is just as effective at laying a strong foundation for their children).
