Volunteer with Reading Buddies
Reading Buddies Volunteer Applications
Volunteer applications for our fall 2026 Reading Buddies programs are currently closed. Check back with us this winter for details regarding our spring sites!
Reading Buddies pairs volunteers with early elementary students to build confidence, strengthen literacy skills, and foster a love of reading in a supportive setting. Volunteers play a meaningful, hands-on role by:
-
Reading and engaging in literacy activities with up to two children
-
Encouraging positive reading habits
-
Supporting children as they practice fluency and comprehension
-
Creating a warm, welcoming environment for young readers
-
