Reading Partners Seattle is a literacy nonprofit proud to serve four diverse public elementary schools across the city. We recruit community volunteers to tutor students who struggle in reading. Through Multicultural Children’s Book Day, we have been enormously gratified by the commitment of our volunteers and community to provide books that allow our students to see themselves in the stories they read.

Our trained, committed community volunteers work one-on-one with these students, delivering a proven curriculum each week that provides a child with the success and motivation for a true love of reading.
