About 

Everybody Wins DC

Everybody Wins DC is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving lives through shared reading. The idea behind our mission is simple and straightforward, yet it brings about powerful change: by connecting a child with a caring adult over a book, Everybody's lives get better - Everybody wins!

Our History

Everybody Wins DC was founded in March 1995 after Senator James Jeffords (R-VT) and Senator Paul Simon (D-IL) brought together a bipartisan coalition of 130 Senators and Senate staff to launch a reading-based mentoring program – Power Lunch – at Brent Elementary School. 

Modeled after a similar program started a few years earlier in New York City, Senators Jeffords and Simon saw Power Lunch as a meaningful way to help support students in need attending a public elementary school just a few blocks from the Capitol Building.  

Now 25 years later, Everybody Wins DC brings shared reading programs to students in 12 elementary schools across Washington DC and Virginia and has made a lasting impact on a generation of students and volunteers.
