Sign up today to volunteer for one hour each week reading aloud to little kids!
More than half of all kindergartners in our state are entering school without the social, emotional, physical and cognitive skills they need to be successful. Research shows that those who start behind often stay behind. The good news is that reading with kids on a regular basis can make a real difference.
United Way of King County is currently recruiting volunteers to read aloud to young children (ages 3-5), one or two at a time (not group reading), at preschools, Head Start classrooms, and child care centers throughout King County. All opportunities are between 9am-4pm Monday to Friday only. Sites and shift times are listed on our website.
