JUNE 10TH READING CLUBS NEED YOU

Please sign up for the next reading clubs!

Click here to submit your RSVP for our "Friendship & Fun" clubs, then "join" the June 10th reading club event on Facebook and invite your friends!

These June 10th reading clubs will be smaller because the school year ends the day before, so be sure to sign up early to help us inspire a summer of reading!

STEP UP TO A BIGGER VOLUNTEER ROLE

Literacy Coordinator Emma Rees

We urgently need experienced volunteers to take on more leadership with us by helping train new and returning volunteers, being a GLC, or especially being a Site Operations Helper at any of our schools.

If you can help in any of those roles, please e-mail us at info@readingtokids.org to help create wonderful reading clubs!

Or, if you want to help in other ways (Curriculum, Marketing, etc.) and have volunteered at least three times, consider joining our Taskforce.

HELP US FIND GRANTS!

Jessica Brown-Clark with Target grant check

Did you know Reading to Kids receives about half of our funding from corporation and foundation grants? For example, over the last five years alone six of our volunteers helped us receive $103,000 in grants from their employers!

Please check to see if your employer offers grants that Reading to Kids can apply to and let us know at info@readingtokids.org! You may help us buy thousands of books for kids!

We are especially looking for someone who works at the The Capital Group Companies.
