March is National Reading Month, let's raise a collective cheer for the volunteers of Literations! Together, you're building a world where every child has the opportunity to explore, imagine, and thrive through the power of reading.

Your team will receive a stack of Literations reading logs next week to share with your students, encouraging them to write down all the great books they read throughout March. You, too, can share what you're reading in your spare time and why you love to read. Talking to children about what you're reading sends the signal that reading is important (and enjoyable!) at every age.

Open Positions

Literations has a number of opportunities. Spread the word! Any applicant referred by staff or volunteer that results in a hire could be eligible for a $1000 referral bonus! We are currently hiring for: Outreach Coordinator, Development and Operations Coordinator, Development Manager, and Dir. of Finance. To learn more visit our Careers PAGE!
