We hope you had a restful Labor Day weekend!

Our September 9th reading clubs are this Saturday, and we need your help finding enough volunteers at most of our schools, especially Esperanza, Magnolia, and Politi!

We currently need 62 more volunteers to read aloud great books and give away school supplies this Saturday

Here are 5 easy things you can do today and all week to help!

1. If you haven't already, please visit our website now and sign up.
   
   
2. "Join" our September 9th Facebook Event to let your friends know the fun you'll be up to this Saturday!
   
   
3. Whether or not you can volunteer this Saturday, tweet, post, pin, and tumble to all your friends and followers that we need more volunteers. Here's a sample post you can use:
   
   "My favorite volunteer organization, Reading to Kids, is looking for more volunteers for their September 9th reading clubs this Saturday. The theme is "Back to School Fun", and every child will get a free book and a school supply that morning.   Join me at ### Elementary School for a fantastic morning of reading to elementary school kids near downtown LA. To join me, sign up online today at www.readingtokids.org."
   
   If you write your own post, please be sure to include the following two things:
   
   - The reading clubs are this Saturday morning, September 9th, near downtown LA
   - Volunteers must sign up online by 3pm this Friday, Sept. 8th, 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.
   
   
4. Copy from our email template at http://www.readingtokids.org/News/SampleVolRecruitEmail.pdf to encourage people you know to sign up to read with us!
   
   
5. 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 Esperanza, Magnolia, and Politi!

Please help share the wonder of Reading to Kids with your friends, family and colleagues!
