About
Caring volunteers read with children in 1st-6th grade enrolled in PT’s summer day camps. The literacy component of Project Transformation is a fun opportunity for volunteers to interact with children in a one-to-one setting. No previous experience is needed, and volunteers can sign up for one day or multiple days. Reading Buddies will help children read books at their level while fostering a love for reading. Books and materials are provided.
