Our volunteers make the work we do at The Kids’ Reading Room possible! They encourage and motivate students to read, build mentor relationships, and most of all, they make sure everyone has fun reading. It only takes one person to change a child’s path forever in a positive way. Is that one person you?

“As a teacher, I encourage reading and The Kids Reading Room contributes to that. I enjoy seeing kids come in to read together and even more so when kids bring their younger siblings. One of the best moments I’ve had in the Reading Room was when a 3rd grade girl brought in her much younger brother. She began reading to him out of a book that was in Spanish. Later, she chose a book that was in English. She read through the book and then began translating it for him page-by-page. It was amazing!”

“Children need to be able to read with no strings attached. To read simply for the joy of discovering new worlds and meeting new and amazing people. Volunteering with The Kids Reading Room takes the ‘school work’ out of reading.”
PENNE IRVIN I Spring Branch ISD Teacher“I believe where you invest, you get a return. I enjoyed the opportunity of investing in young people’s lives and to help ensure a brighter future for them. Today’s Readers will be Tomorrow’s Leaders!”
