Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,
Final call! We have until 3pm today to find just 11 more volunteers to RSVP for tomorrow's in-person, on campus reading clubs!
(Above image is from before the pandemic.)
Volunteers for our reading clubs must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and wear a mask while indoors on campus for the reading clubs. The kids will also be required to wear masks while indoors.
NOTE: Sign up only if you can join us on the school campus for which you RSVP.

Whether or not you can volunteer this Saturday,
Tweet @readingtokids, post, and message your
friends and followers. Here's a sample
post you can use:
"My
favorite volunteer organization, Reading to Kids, needs more volunteers for their
October 8th reading clubs tomorrow. The theme is "Halloween, Magic, & Monsters", and every participant will wear masks while indoors. Join me at ###
Elementary School for a fantastic morning of reading to
elementary school kids near downtown LA. To join me, sign up online before 3pm
today at www.readingtokids.org."
If you write your own
post, please be sure to include the following two
things:
- The reading clubs are tomorrow morning, October 8th, near downtown LA
- Volunteers must sign up online by 3pm today, Oct. 7th, at
www.readingtokids.org
If you have people in mind who you think would really
like to read with us, tag them in your post. It will
alert them to the reading clubs and show up in their
friends' news feeds.

Copy from our message template at

to encourage people you know to sign up to read with us!
-
Print out this flyer at
http://readingtokids.org/ProMaterials/VolunteerTearOffFlyer.pdf
and post it somewhere others will see it. Make it a
personal and fun social event by including the school at
which you'll be reading or encouraging them to read at your favorite of our eight partner schools!
October also means live magic performances from our magicians! We also encourage all volunteers to dress up in school-appropriate Halloween costumes!
