Join us for Trident United Way's 6th Annual Read Across America Day on Thursday, March 2nd!
Volunteer to be a classroom reader! Volunteers will visit classrooms to share their love of reading with a book (or two) to students in Child Development through 3rd grade. This year, 10 schools throughout the Tri-County community are participating, providing the opportunity to read to over 150 classrooms.
Your reading will help inspire a future generation of readers. Volunteers can be as creative as they like using fun props, costumes, backdrops and more.Request to more information or to sign up through the link below.
