Fostering a love for reading.
The simple act of reading to a child, over time, can have a profound impact on the child’s future. The Childrens Center's Reading Corner provides an outlet for the child to imagine a world of possibilities and create stories of their own. The Reading Corner also offers the the staff a convenient, joyful, and meaningful way to give back.
We are honored to have our leadership volunteer their time to help children learn the joys of reading.
