​
This program encourages schools to conduct their own Read-It-Foward-Athon with the purpose of donating the proceeds to funding new books for a sister school with at-risk learners or use the proceeds to purchase books for their school. Stan-The-Man will organize and emcee the event! Students will ask in advance for sponsorship from the community to donate money for every minute they read in the Read-It-Forward-Athon. Then it is as simple as read, read, read for the duration of the event. Leap for Literacy will then use a portion of the funding to curate and distribute new books for the sister school of the participants choosing! That is a real win for everybody!
