This month on a three-day, Valentine's Day weekend, 942 kids, 393 volunteers, 121 parents, and 31 teachers & staff helped to make last Saturday's reading clubs a success!

Our "Music & Celebration" reading clubs are March 12th, where we will have musical performances at each school!

RSVP for our March reading clubs here. Please also take a moment to join our March 12th Facebook event. Your friends will be able to see that you're attending the reading clubs, and you can help spread the word by inviting them to join, too.

On Sunday Team Reading to Kids got up at the crack of dawn to run the 2016 Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon.

They have raised over $10,800, and even though the marathon is completed, you can still donate to their fundraising pages to help them reach their goal of $13,600!

This Saturday, Feb. 20th Reading to Kids volunteer Candice Courtney and fellow singers Carrie Wade, Jaq Mackenzie, and Ainjel Emme are performing together as Girl Power - a benefit concert with proceeds supporting Reading to Kids!

Join us for New York-style Sichuan Chinese food and playful cocktails as we enjoy their live music in an intimate space. Click the image above to see a flyer with all the details that you can share with your friends! You can also print out the flyer and post it wherever many people are likely to see it!
