The Run for Literacy is the morning of Saturday, October 13 and we need your help! This event is an annual 5k run and walk, now in its 27th year, and benefits Literacy Network's adult literacy programs, which primarily serve immigrants and refugees living and working in Dane County. This is the perfect volunteer opportunity for you if you want to volunteer for just one day, but make a big impact!

Volunteer duties include:

  • Registering runners for the race and handing out medals to the winners
  • Cheering on the Run for Literacy runners and walkers
  • Helping monitor important intersections on the course to ensure race safety
  • Cycling the course to lead the race and send messages
