Walmart Foundation donates $10,000
to support Read Aloud efforts
Read Aloud West Virginia was one of five organizations nominated by the Walmart Foundation to participate in its Associate Choice Program. Employees of Walmart and Sam's Club voted online which organization would get $100,000.
Read Aloud did not win the big prize, but Read Aloud volunteers are grateful for a $10,000 donation given to all nominees.
Donations to Read Aloud support various efforts that foster literacy and lifelong reading habits. Generous donors help Read Aloud to put books in the hands of children who may not have easy access to books in their homes and communities. Donations also supply the staff and materials to support recruiting, training, placing and maintaining volunteer classroom readers and to support local Read Aloud groups in their efforts.
Read Aloud West Virginia appreciates the gift from the Walmart Foundation to support our staff and volunteers in helping West Virginia raise a state full of readers.
