Gifford Park Book Buddy

Join P4K to support Gifford Park Elementary students!

About P4K's Book Buddy Program: Twice a month, Book Buddies reinforce the importance of school attendance and reading at home and school. Volunteers read a book with students, and P4K provides each student with a copy of a book to build their at-home library.

What Book Buddies Do: Book Buddies read with a small group of 3rd or 4th grade students, encouraging students to practice their own reading skills. They volunteer for 30 minutes, in two classrooms. Books are centered on a theme, and topics include goal-setting, gratitude, friendship, colleges and careers. All materials are provided in advance to the volunteer prior to the visit.

Time Commitment: 9:20 - 10:30 am, twice a month on Wednesdays
