“You make changes when you ‘reach back’ and ‘pull up.’ When someone is pulled up, they in turn ‘reach back’ and your contribution multiplies and multiplies to help the next generation.”
-Robineisha Cosby, Student Speaker
We at The READ Center want to thank each and every one of you for contributing to the success of A Moveable Feast: 40 Years of READ!
Whether you attended as a guest, came as a volunteer, or were one of our sponsors, your presence was truly impactful and empowers us to continue to serve the Richmond Metro community that we all cherish. Every dollar we raised at the event itself, whether through live/silent auction or a donation, goes back to programs to support our students to meet their literacy goals.
This year your contributions totaled over $50,000!

“I volunteer because reading has been a blessing in my life, and I enjoy sharing my passion with others who hope to feel the same comfort and joy with books. Volunteers feel that we receive more than we give.”
