Spread around a love of literature, books and writing! Many children, and even adults, struggle when it comes to reading.
Look into volunteering for adult literacy classes or reading to the elderly at a retirement home. www.proliteracy.org has an amazing legacy:
Laubach Literacy International's history begins in 1930, when Dr. Frank C. Laubach was a missionary among the Maranao people of the Philippines. His concern about their poor living conditions led him to conclude that the ability to read and write was essential for them to begin to solve their problems. As the Maranaos learned to read, they would, in turn, teach other adults on a one-to-one basis that became known as "Each One, Teach One." From 1935 to 1967, Dr. Laubach visited 105 countries answering calls for literacy help and created reading lessons in 315 languages.
