We Made It—Thank You!

As the school year comes to a close, we want to thank you for everything you gave this year. Your time, your care, your steady presence—it all adds up to something powerful for your students.

Whether it was a breakthrough moment or simply showing up week after week, you helped create a space where young readers could grow and feel supported.



We hope you head into summer feeling proud of what you were part of. We’re so grateful to have you in this community.

Gift Giving Policy

Literations asks that we DO NOT buy additional gifts for children. Cards are okay. This is to respect equity for both the students and your fellow coaches. Thank you for respecting this important policy.

Let's Grow!

You know firsthand how meaningful and fun it is to be part of Literations — now’s the time to help us bring more great people into the fold. We’re recruiting new volunteers for the fall, and your voice can make all the difference.

If you have friends, family, neighbors, or coworkers who might enjoy working with kids, making a difference in local schools, and being part of a supportive team, send them our way!

Our upcoming info sessions are a great first step for anyone curious about getting involved: Feel free to forward our Info Session Flyer, post it in your community, or just share a few words about why you volunteer — it goes a long way.

Thanks for helping us spread the word. The more volunteers we have, the more young readers we can support this fall!

Help Us Pick New Books!

Have a Great Read Aloud to Recommend?

Our amazing team of volunteers and staff regularly reviews books to keep our Read Aloud library fresh and engaging. If you have a title you think would be a great fit, submit your recommendation here. Be sure to review our Read Aloud Philosophy to ensure it aligns with our guidelines. Thanks for helping us grow our library!

Tell Us Your Stories

We know our literacy coaches have incredible stories about the impact they’re making in students’ lives, and we’d love to hear them! Help us tell our story to funders, social media followers, and the broader Literations community by sharing your favorite coaching moments through this quick survey. Of course, there’s no pressure—just an open invitation to contribute if you’re interested.

Pride Month

🌈 Celebrate Pride with Connection, Joy & Local Events

June is Pride Month—a time to honor LGBTQ+ history, celebrate identity, and show up for one another with love and joy. Whether you're out at the parade or curled up with a great book, there are plenty of ways to join in.

Volunteers Facebook Group!

Looking to connect with fellow volunteers, share tips, and celebrate successes? Our new Literations Volunteers Facebook Group is the perfect space to build community and stay inspired. Whether you’re seeking advice, sharing resources, or just want to join the conversation, we’d love to have you!
