ReadingPals is a statewide early literacy initiative that provides volunteer mentors for students from Pre-K to 3rd grade who may need extra help, utilizing one-on-one or small group settings.
In Bay & Washington Counties, ReadingPals volunteers help elementary students build strong early literacy skills necessary for success.
Being a ReadingPals volunteer means becoming a real-life superhero in a child’s story—someone who sparks imagination, builds confidence, and opens doors to a lifetime of possibilities through the power of reading.
As a ReadingPal, you’re more than a volunteer; you’re a mentor, a cheerleader, and a trusted friend. You’ll spend just an hour a week sharing books and conversations with a young student, helping them fall in love with stories while strengthening their literacy skills.
It’s about creating a moment that matters—where a child learns to believe in themselves because you believed in them first.
One book. One hour. One child at a time. That’s the heart of ReadingPals—where small moments create big change
