Encourage Reading, Raise Funds/Books &
Get Books into Kids Homes
The goal of the Reach for the Stars program is for the children to read,
or be read to, for an average of 30 minutes per day for 10 days.
It is a pledge-based reading challenge program that puts books into the
hands of children and
rewards them for reading, as well as benefiting your organization with
an 100+% return in the form of cash and/or books.
Each participating child receives a certificate, a bookmark, and books
earned.
Incentives and prizes are personalized for your organization to add
excitement.
