- 1. John Wood’s Room To Read
- 2. Intro to John’s life • John Wood was born in January 1964, in Hartford, Connecticut, in which he spent his early childhood. He holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Colorado, and a master's degree in business administration from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University. • From 1991-1999, John Wood worked as an executive for Microsoft. His positions included Director of Marketing for Australia, Director of Marketing for the Asia-Pacific region and Director of Business Development for Greater China.
- 3. Continued… • However one day, Wood decided to take a vacation from his work in 1998 to trek through the Himalayas. While trekking, he met a “resource director” for the schools in the Annapurna Circuit of Nepal, where he visited a primary school that contained 450 children and only a handful of books—none age-appropriate. Upon seeing Wood's reaction to the lack of books, the school’s headmaster suggested, "Perhaps, sir, you will someday come back with books," which inspired Wood.
- 4. Room to Read • Wood officially co-founded Room to Read in 2001 with Dinesh Shrestha and Erin Ganju. Currently operating in ten countries throughout Asia and Africa (Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Laos, Nepal, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Vietnam and Zambia) the organization focuses on increasing literacy and gender equality in education in developing countries. Its programs develop literacy skills and a habit of reading among primary school children, and help girls to complete secondary school with the relevant life skills to succeed in school and afterwards.
- 5. Continued… • The organization celebrated its tenth anniversary in 2010, which included the opening of its 10,000th library, construction of its 1,000th school, and support of its 10,000th girl through the organization's Girls' Education program. • As of July 2012, Room to Read has established over 1,600 schools and 13,500 libraries, distributed 11 million books, and published 707 local-language children's books— benefiting 6 million children to date.
