 WORD and the community

WORD is proud to be helping with the noble efforts of ReadThis, a volunteer organization dedicated to providing books or writer visits wherever needed. If you would like more information or want to help with Book Actions, please join on them on Facebook or write to readthisorg@gmail.com. 

Thanks to all of those who helped provide full classroom sets for Science Skills Center High School in Fort Greene, Women's Academy of Excellence in the Bronx, CS21 in Bed Stuy and 376A in Bushwick, Brooklyn. And thanks to those who helped with our latest campaign for Battle of the Books students in West Harlem! All books have now been purchased for those campaigns. Check back soon for new chances to help connect NYC kids with books!

WORD is proud to donate money to and partner with the Greenpoint Soup Kitchen. They are always in need of donations and volunteers, so don't be shy!
