Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
Why is Connect4Literacy.org closing?
Connect4Literacy.org is closing as part of a strategic shift in how the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation (Foundation) supports literacy initiatives. We are consolidating resources to better serve our community through other platforms and partnerships.
When will the website officially close?
The website will be taken offline on August 29, 2025. After this date, users will no longer be able to access the site or its resources.
What will happen to my account and data?
All volunteer contact data (Name, Address, Phone Number, and Email) will be securely stored in Foundation's customer relations management platform for marketing and communication purposes. Volunteers are encouraged to print their volunteer history before August 29, 2025 (See image). Volunteer hours, volunteer opportunities and organizations being served will be securely deleted after August 29, 2025. 
Are there alternative volunteer resources I can use?
Yes! While Connect4Literacy.org may be going away, the countless organizations you volunteered at are still in need of your service and support. We recommend calling or visiting your favorite volunteer site to learn how you can continue support. We also recommend visiting www.barbarabushhouston.org/volunteer to find volunteer opportunities that directly support initiatives of the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation.
Who can I contact for more information?

Volunteers Change Lives
Interested in joining our army of partners and volunteers working to combat Houston’s literacy crisis?
The Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation works diligently to expand the capacity of school districts, libraries and community-based literacy service providers to serve people in need through volunteerism and service.
Today, Connect4Literacy.org is Houston’s go-to platform for those wanting to volunteer and become a point of light by working to improve literacy rates. The interactive platform allows volunteers to search volunteer opportunities, form volunteer teams, track and print transcripts of service hours, and much more.
