Overview
We are grateful to the many individuals, 
foundations, and corporations who support Reading Partners. Without this generosity, children in need from disadvantaged local communities would not have the opportunity to work with a tutor to overcome their struggles with reading. Your gift gives children the chance to succeed in school and in life.
Below, please find out how you can support Reading Partners by donating funds, strengthening your donation, organizing a book drive, hosting an event, and donating services, equipment or books.
