Fall is fund raising time!
Read to Know needs your support to provide new books at the holiday season to the young children we serve. For many of these children, our gift is the first new book they have ever had! Donating is easy!
Just go to our website WWW.readtoknow.org, press the DONATE tab and follow the directions.
Another way to support us is to sign up for Amazon smile and designate Read to Know as your charity. It costs you nothing and Read to Know receives a small donation for each of your purchases.
Either way, our kids benefit
Happy holidays
Lolly Burgin, Director
