What is Read United Day?
The flagship program of Read United, Read United Day is organized in Bryan, Chatham, Effingham, and Liberty counties. On these days United Way volunteers read to classrooms and give books to every student in our region in pre-k through 2nd grade. Read United Day has continued to expand over the years, and this past year, more than 950 volunteers read and gave free books to over 19,000 children in the region. Many lower-income students have no books in their homes, which we can do something about.
