Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,

Though our June 13th reading clubs are currently full, there are lots of opportunities to get involved here at Reading to Kids!

Share your marketing expertise at tonight's Marketing Committee meeting, plan social events for volunteers at the Volunteer Relations Committee meeting on Tuesday, May 26, and put together arts & crafts projects and reading guides at the Curriculum Committee meeting on Sunday, May 31.

You can also write about your volunteer experience for our blog. If you're interested in any of the above, e-mail info@readingtokids.org.
