On Saturday at Gratts Elementary, Site Coordinator Lessa Acosta received her 100th reading club milestone certificate and special 100+ name badge!
At MacArthur Park Elementary, GLC and Site Operations Helper Patricia Bergey also received her 80th milestone certificate, along with one of our founders, Jason Axe, who received his certificate for his 290th reading club! They are on each end of the above photo on the right! 
BE LIKE LESSA, PATRICIA, & JASON!
Every month we urgently need experienced volunteers to take on more leadership with us by
checking in volunteers as they arrive, helping train new and returning volunteers, being a GLC, or especially being a second or third Site Coordinator
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!

CAN'T RUN 26 MILES OR 5K?
THEN PLEASE SUPPORT OUR
2026 MARATHON & 5K RUNNERS!
DONATE OR HAND OUT WATER
DURING THE RACE!
Please support Team Reading to Kids as they run the Los Angeles Marathon on March 8th or the LA Big 5K on March 7th!
They have until March 8th to reach their ambitious $20,000 fundraising goal! If you can donate a buck a mile to your favorite runner, you'll help fuel them towards the finish line!
They have been training for months over hundreds of miles, and so far our runners have raised $7,470 in support of our
monthly reading clubs.
Your donation will make all their months and miles of training pay off in books for the kids we serve!
With every mile they train and every dollar they raise, these valiant souls help you inspire kids with a love of reading.
HAND OUT WATER DURING THE MARATHON!
Help represent Reading to Kids during the Los Angeles Marathon on March 8th by handing out water to the runners!
Our group will be at Water Station Mile 9 at Hollywood Blvd & Hobart Blvd., on Sunday, March 8th from 5am - 11am.
Click this link to sign up! Our group is
Reading to Kids, so just complete the form and sign up to join our three volunteers who have signed up already!
If you can't join us at the above, then donate your support as our runners continue training for hundreds of miles!
Our next Legendary Bingo fundraisers at
Hamburger Mary's in West Hollywood will be on May 20th and in the fall! Please help us gather prizes for auctions and bingo winners that night!
To help you get started, here is information about Reading to Kids to share with potential donors, as well as a donation form for them to complete.
We especially enjoy awarding gift certificates,
amusement park and theater tickets, gift bags, and
autographed items! Anything unique is great, too!
If you work at or have a connection with products or services to offer, please help us by asking for a donation to our events.
You may have gift cards you haven't used which would make excellent prizes if you'd like to donate them to us! E-mail us at info@readingtokids.org to arrange mailing them to us!
