Volunteer with Story Pals
Story Pals Volunteer Applications
Volunteer applications for our fall 2026 Story Pals programs are currently closed. Check back with us this winter for details regarding our spring sites!
Story Pals pairs volunteers with preschool 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 holding conversation with up to two children
-
Encouraging positive reading habits
-
Supporting children as they expand vocabulary and critical thinking skills
-
Creating a warm, welcoming environment for young readers
