Have fun while you help children who are struggling in the reading skills by becoming a Reading Mentor in Power Lunch literacy and mentoring program! Mentors meet with a student at a local public elementary school for one-on-one read aloud sessions that take place each week during the school year. If you share a student with another volunteer, the time commitment is just two lunch hours a month. Power Lunch has proven results in developing the reading skills, enhancing the self-esteem and improving the academic performance of student participants.

Power Lunch operates in thirteen Title I public elementary schools throughout metro Atlanta. Choose the school closest to where you are at lunchtime. The program is easy, fun and rewarding!
