Do you love to read? Our "Book Buddies" program is an incentivized reading program in which children read with volunteers and earn stickers towards gift card to local book stores. This program happens on weeknights at our Family Shelters. We ask that volunteers commit to a minimum of one night per week for a minimum of three months.

Application, interview, confidentiality agreement, plus references and background check are required.
