Freadom, a Literacy Movement! - The Positivity Report - Ep. 134

Brian Floriani established Bernie’s Book Bank in 2009, Chicago’s leading provider of quality books to under-served children (having distributed nearly 20 million books to more than 300,000 eager readers since its founding in 2009), Brian saw firsthand the devastating effects that illiteracy can have on a person and family, and felt an immediate need to do something about it.

Realizing that providing reading material was not going to fix the root of the illiteracy problem, Brian established Freadom in late 2020 as a purpose-driven, for-profit lifestyle brand offering high-quality, responsibly made apparel and products, with 100% of the net profits going towards transformative literacy initiatives. By utilizing a rarely seen social enterprise business model (think Newman’s Own), Freadom is turning traditional approaches to social giving on its head, setting the audacious goal of investing $100MM to literacy initiatives annually.

Brian lives and breathes his mission to transform literacy initiatives across the United States and is a true leader that not only talks about the changes that need to be made in our society, but takes action to make those changes on a daily basis.
