Looking for volunteers to help with our Summer Reading Program. Children needing extra reading suport during the summer will be paired up with a reading buddy. Dates and times are to be determined still but the program is scheduled to run for 6 weeks during the summer. (we will likely not meet the week of July 2-8) "Reading buddies" would meet with their learner twice a week at a designated time. Materials will be provided. Make a difference in a child's life this summer!!

Seniors meeting certain requirements may be eligible for a small stipend through the Foster Grandparent reading program when volunteering for this program, please call for more details.
