Volunteer to assemble Literacy Kits!
Literacy kits will be distributed to children in low income families to help avoid summer learning loss. By helping to assemble and distribute these kits, you will be encouraging parents and children to read, and ultimately to help young students succeed in school.
Research demonstrates that 61% of low-income children do not have children's books at home! Did you know that over 80% of low income children read below grade level at the end of third grade?
The UPS Foundation therefore has targeted grade level reading as a major focus for UPSers. Volunteer to Build Literacy Kits on June 26th!
WHERE: UPS Raritan Center - 1 Clover Place, Edison (Conference Room)
TIME: 12:00 - 2:30 pm
Registration Required: You may respond individually, or as a team (up to 4 persons.)
