2018 Walk for Literacy (October 20)
Walk with Team St. HOPE to promote reading and writing for every child
3 out of 5 children cannot read at grade-level.
The literacy crisis in Sacramento threatens to drastically impact this generation of children, their future and the future of our city. Sacramento’s literacy crisis requires bold action and massive public awareness. From the 2017 Walk4Literacy, $7,200 was be granted to local programs positively impacting children’s literacy in our community. To date, $37,200 has been granted back to community organizations helping children reach grade-level reading. Our goal is to help every child reach grade-level reading. The Walk4Literacy is a collaborative project.
Join the St. HOPE Team for this great cause and earn 5 community service hours!
