Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,
This Saturday's Friendship & Fun reading clubs are probably full, but
please keep checking for new openings today and tomorrow before 3pm since a few people often realize they need to cancel.
(If you signed up for the reading clubs but can't join us,
please
cancel your RSVP now so that another volunteer can sign up in your place.)
These June reading clubs are smaller because the schools are on their summer break.
Mark your calendars for July 11th and August 8th as we keep students enjoying books throughout the summer!
A FEW MORE LEADERS WANTED:
CHECK-IN HELPERS,
AND SITE OPERATIONS HELPERS
This Saturday is the perfect time for those who have volunteered with us a few times recently to step into and learn any of our important Operations roles - all training very pleasantly provided!
We can't guarantee you'll get to read this Saturday, but please e-mail us at
info@readingtokids.org if you can volunteer for any of the following roles:
- Check-in Helper at Magnolia
- Site Operations Helper at any school - your Site Coordinators always welcome help at 8am!

PLEASE HELP US FIND
MORE BINGO PRIZES & AUCTION ITEMS
Our next Legendary Bingo fundraiser at
Hamburger Mary's in West Hollywood will be in the fall. Please help us gather new 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!

HELP US FIND GRANTS!
Did you know Reading to Kids receives about
half of our funding from corporate and foundation
grants? For example, over the last five years alone
seven of our volunteers helped us receive $160,000 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!
