Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,

Our August 12th "Arts & Creativity" reading clubs still have a few spots open, so please click here to submit your RSVP to join us that morning!

Reading to Kids at Magnolia Elem.

These August reading clubs will be a little smaller because the schools will still be on their summer break, so be sure to sign up now!

(If you signed up for these reading clubs but can't join us, please cancel your RSVP so that another volunteer can take your place!)

LEAD VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!

Veteran volunteers help out with logistics

Even if your school is full, we are particularly in need of volunteers to be Site Operations Helpers, Grade Level Coordinators, Check-in Helpers, and New and Returning Volunteer Trainers.

These smaller summer reading clubs are the best times to step into any of these important roles - all training pleasantly provided!

If you have volunteered with us a few times and can help in any of those roles, please e-mail us at info@readingtokids.org to help create wonderful reading clubs!

BE A READING TO KIDS AMBASSADOR

Volunteers at Charles White Elementary

With the 2023-24 school year beginning August 14th, we will have many opportunities for you to help us promote Reading to Kids at our partner schools as a Reading to Kids Ambassador.

There are three different ways you can help: Kindergarten Orientations, Teacher Breakfast Deliveries, and Back-to-School-Nights.

We'll supply everything you need, including what to say at the Kindergarten Orientations. Although it's great if you can speak Spanish (even a little), all of our parent materials are bilingual, and there's always someone who can translate for you at the school.

These events set the course for the rest of the year and are a wonderful way to interact with the kids, parents, and teachers.

If you are an experienced volunteer with us and are interested in being an Ambassador, please e-mail us at info@readingtokids.org or call (310) 479-7455.

Thanks, and we hope you can help with any of the above!
