Join YPN as we work with Philadelphia Reads to help promote literacy for Philadelphia’s youngest and most at-risk population. YPN volunteers will help sort thousands of books, and then transport and unload these books to MLK High School. Volunteers are also invited to bring and donate 2-3 books. Those who do will have the opportunity to record the books onto tapes for school children!

There will be no transportation provided for the transfer of books to MLK High School, so YPN is looking for volunteers with cars to help with this aspect of the event.

Philadelphia Reads is a nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening the literacy skills of Philadelphia’s youngest and most at-risk population. It does so by providing mentors and resources for in-school, after-school and summer programs. Don’t miss this opportunity to join your YPN peers in to help Philadelphia Reads support childhood literacy!
