About Us

THIS IS OUR STORY

Allow me to introduce myself…

Deidra Mayberry is native of Texas, originally from San Antonio, ultimately migrating to Dallas. Her struggle with reading was recognized early by her, beginning her internal self-doubt and lack of worthiness. She continued to struggle with reading into her late 20’s, limiting her in work progression, earnings, relationships, self-worth and opportunities.

Deidra had a dream that one day she would create a non-profit that would provide an environment where adult learners can reestablish their literacy journey with dignity and discretion, at no cost to them. Today she leads Reading To New Heights, providing literacy training to low literacy adults, at no cost to them with a flexible platform that allows them to learn around their schedule and begin providing a better tomorrow for themselves, their family and community.

Adult Learners – Here is your place to improve your reading skills, opportunities, and remove limitations.

Volunteers/Donors – Your support improves our communities, individual opportunities, and gives back through a cause that breaks the limitations placed on a forgotten and left behind population.

In the words of George Eliot, “It is never too late, to be what you might have been.”

We are here to Read to New Heights.
