Help me raise for Read Ahead!

I am a Junior Board member for Read Ahead and am so excited to be supporting this wonderful organization. I want to do my part to help raise $100,000 and fund the schools that need it most. Reaching our goal will serve the 200+ children at P.S. 125 and P.S. 36 in West Harlem and P.S. 130 in Chinatown. Supporting children as they grow a love for reading and develop the emotional and social skills they will need in life is why I love volunteering my time to work and support Read Ahead.

On Tuesday,  March 10, I will be flexing my bowling skills at the 9th Annual Strikes, Spares, and Splits event, a night of bowling to benefit Read Ahead, a reading-based mentoring nonprofit serving elementary students throughout New York City.

Read Ahead is devoted to facilitating mentor relationships that develop the social-emotional skills children need to successfully navigate school and daily life. Throughout the school year, Read Ahead matches corporate and community volunteers with young children in nearby elementary schools for weekly lunchtime mentoring sessions. Read Ahead is free of cost to students and schools and this event directly supports the community partner elementary schools that are not funded by corporate gifts. They serve over 200 children at P.S. 125 and P.S. 36 in West Harlem and P.S. 130 in Chinatown.

I'm participating in Strikes, Spares, and Splits because I support the mission of Read Ahead. What may seem like a short hour of a mentor's week is a highly impactful moment for Read Ahead's students.
