Duncan Jemison* is a successful retired doctor who cares passionately about literacy and learning. Through the Read With Me Foundation at the Community Foundation of Western Nevada, he provides full preschool scholarships to at least two young early readers each year. Pictured here, two scholarship winners are “graduating” on to kindergarten.
The Read With Me Foundation is a growing, permanent fund, encouraging more children to read and learn every year. Look for these students to shine brightly in our Northern Nevada communities for generations to come. The Community Foundation spent the last 10 years helping smart, compassionate people like Duncan turn their ideas into action.
