- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Do you enjoy reading books with children? If so, The South Sound Reading Foundation has the perfect opportunity for you! As part of our Adopt-a-Daycare Program, you will be paired with a child care facility near your home or office, and you will be a "guest reader" on a regular basis. You'll also give away free books to the children at your location!
This opportunity is for CIELO Shelton. You will need to go through our storytime training process before you can become a reader for our organization.
Date: 2nd Thursday of the month
Time: 4:30-5 PM
Location: 2505 Olympic Highway North, Suite 140; Shelton, WA 98584
Group size: usually under 10 children, ages 2-14
Extra notes: This storytime serves Spanish-speaking children, and so we would love a storytime volunteer who speaks English & Spanish. Folks who only speak English are encouraged to apply as well! You will also restock the bookshelf we maintain at this location.
