We’re ONE week away from GIVING TUESDAY 2024! Meg Winter is a volunteer mentor at Moore Elementary, a member of the Everybody Wins! Iowa Board and a donor, who shares that, “reading with kids makes me feel like I’m putting good into our community. I think it inspires others to do the same in any type of volunteering.” We thank Meg, and all of our wonderful mentors, board and committee members for making our programming possible. Feeling inspired? It’s never too early to donate to Everybody Wins! Iowa for GIVING TUESDAY 2024! https://lnkd.in/gzV-agQ3?

Everybody Wins! Iowa is a children’s literacy and mentoring nonprofit dedicated to ensuring children’s success.
关于我们
Everybody Wins! Iowa is a literacy and mentoring organization that is dedicated to increasing children’s success in school through reading and mentoring experiences with caring volunteers. Everybody Wins! Iowa was brought to Iowa in 2002 by Sen. Tom Harkin. During its first year, Everybody Wins! Iowa served 15 children in three schools. Today, Everybody Wins! Iowa serves more than 500 children in 20 schools and community organizations. Power Read is Everybody Wins! Iowa’s signature program. Once a week, volunteer reading mentors travel to nearby elementary schools or community organizations for an hour of one-on-one reading with a student. The program has expanded to 34 sites in Polk, Dallas, Warren, and Marion counties in Central Iowa. To volunteer with us, please visit: https://everybodywinsiowa.org/get-involved/ and click the link to apply online. After a brief background check, potential volunteer mentors will receive an orientation and be matched with a student. There are many opportunities to volunteer for one-time events as well! Follow us on our social media platforms or visit our events calendar: https://everybodywinsiowa.org/events/ for more information. The program’s simple equation—one child, one mentor, one book at a time—produces powerful results.

Everybody Wins! Iowa is saddened to share the loss of a dear mentor and supporter of our program. Valerie Gramlich passed away recently, following a courageous battle with cancer. Valerie has long been dedicated to Everybody Wins, serving as a Power Read mentor to 5 students at Edmunds Elementary School between 2017 and 2023. Valerie also went above and beyond, serving as a board member since 2022, and as a valued member of our volunteer special events committee since?2020. To thank Valerie for her years of service to our organization, and to note the impact she had, especially at Edmunds, a special book will be added to the school's cart in her honor. https://lnkd.in/ghy4e394
