DONATE TO SUPPORT OUR MARATHON RUNNERS

Please support Team Reading to Kids as they run the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon on February 14th (Valentine's Day)!

With every mile they train and every dollar they raise, these valiant souls help you inspire kids with a love of reading.

They need your help to raise $8,600 more towards their overall goal of $13,600. If you can donate a buck a mile to your favorite runner, you'll help fuel them towards the finish line!

Our March 12th reading clubs feature "Music & Celebration", and we are looking for musicians to perform at each of our seven partner schools. In the past we've had everything from Korean drum troupes to electric violin players to marching bands!

If you or someone you know is interested in sharing the gift of music with our students and volunteers, email us at info@readingtokids.org.

THANK YOU
ELLA FITZGERALD CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

Please join us in thanking the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation for yet another donation of 1,020 books for us to give away at our reading clubs!

When you help us give them away to the kids, you'll know which books these are because of this special sticker inside:
