About Raising A Reader MA
Our goal is to close the literacy opportunity gap among children ages birth to age six in under-resourced communities by helping families develop and practice shared home reading habits. Our vision is to make interactive reading a joyful and rewarding routine for all families. We equip parents to be their child’s first teacher, empowered to be active participants in their child’s education, impacting success in school and beyond.
About Rodman For Kids
Rodman for Kids partners with 40+ youth-focused organizations to raise funds for their programs and engage in collaborative opportunities. Rodman for Kids' main event is an all-day bike ride in which riders choose to complete a 25 or 50 mile non-competitive route through southeastern Massachusetts to raise money for at-risk children. This year, as an alternative to participating in the physical bike ride, there is also a virtual Choose Your Own Adventure option, for which participants create their own activities that fit their schedules and abilities.
WE INVITE YOU TO JOIN OUR TEAM!
Choose your own adventure and get as creative as you like! You could swim, hike, dance, golf, read, sing - You name it! Just pick a goal and ask your friends and family to make a pledge to support your effort to help the RAR-MA cause.
Rodman for Kids has raised over $150 million for youth-focused non-profits and continues to impact tens of thousands of kids each year. Please join our Rodman team this year to raise awareness and critical funding for RAR-MA!
We are encouraging people to try the “Choose Your Own Adventure” and create activities that best suit your physical and time needs. Participants who choose their own adventure can get as creative as possible!
You could swim, hike, dance, golf, read, sing - you name it, if you can commit to a goal and work to raise funds in support of it, your adventure can help the cause.
All funds raised through the Rodman Ride will go to support our important work to close the early literacy opportunity gap.
Here is what your contribution will make possible:
$15: Provides a brand new, age-appropriate, and culturally relevant book for our Red Book Bag rotation program.
$50: Supports a workshop for parents and caregivers to learn how best to engage children in books to increase reading frequency, quality, and kindergarten readiness.
$110: Covers program orientation costs for an entire family in an under-resourced community.
$550: Purchases necessary software licenses for RAR-MA to continue its programs
$1500: Enables a year of virtual partnership access, support, coaching, and caregiver education for those who can’t join us in person.
Every dollar goes towards providing resources for early learners,
and any amount will help!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
