The Literacy Council is teaming up with Better Basics, The Junior League of Birmingham, and the Children's Literacy Guild of Alabama for Birmingham Reads, a program that will distribute books to low-income children while raising awareness of child and adult literacy services.
They are looking for volunteers to read to K-5 graders at all 37 Birmingham City elementary schools on April 14th between 12:30-2:30. Your participation will make a difference in a child's life, by helping to foster the love of reading and giving him or her a book to take home and keep. A book drive, called Birmingham's Biggest Book Drive also will be taking place for Birmingham Reads, from April 1-15. For more information or to sign up to volunteer, please visit Hand On Birmingham's website.
