Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,

Our June 11th "People & Places Around the World" reading clubs are about 60% full, so please sign up today!

Please also join our June 11th Facebook event to help spread the word.

We would love to have more Site Coordinators, New Volunteer Trainers, Returning Volunteer Trainers, or GLCs.

These smaller summer reading clubs are the best times to step into any of these important roles - all training will be pleasantly provided! Please email us at info@readingtokids.org if you are interested.
