It’s a program that pairs volunteers with children to enjoy reading in a relaxing environment.
- You listen to them read.
- They listen to you read.
- You read aloud together.
You meet after school and during the summer at places that provide care for children.
No tests, no grades, no pressure. Only fun!
- Do you like children?
- Do you like to read?
- Looking for something meaningful to do?
- Want to provide your employees/students with the opportunity to serve your community?
Partner with the Metropolitan Library System's "Come Read with Me" program.
"Come Read with Me” volunteers share in the joy of helping children find their dreams within the pages of a book. As one Community Center Director said, “These are children that wouldn’t be caught dead with a book. Now, after one summer with ‘Come Read with Me,’ they are comfortable taking some quiet time to read.”
