Community Resource Hub
Room to Read promotes several campaigns during the year. Some of these campaigns focus on important days of awareness, like International Day of the Girl, while others focus on Room to Read-specific campaigns like She Creates Change. As a volunteer, we ask for and appreciate your promotion of these campaigns in ways that work for you. Each year, a few of our campaigns have a "matching donation" incentive that volunteers can leverage to motivate people to give. You may also consider planning your own campaigns and events around the same time as our larger campaigns to take advantage of matches and other provided assets.
