Greeks Read Across Nashville Day
2023 Greeks Read Across Nashville Day
Click here to donate books to GRAND Classrooms! Or VENMO a donation using the information below.
We need 350 books this year. Thanks to all who've donated so far! We've reached our goal!
If you'd like to donate a book or more, we will give them to classroom teachers in more MNPS elementary schools.
The Nashville Area Alumnae Chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi invites members of all Greek-letter organizations (and their family, friends, and coworkers) to read to elementary school classrooms in celebration of Read Across America each year. We’ll be providing books & readers on March 1, 2, and 3, 2023.
We've grown from serving one school to TEN in the past seven years. Our goal is to continue to expand the event to more schools as we grow our list of volunteer readers in the coming years.
As we continue to adjust to life post-pandemic, we are pleased to share that there will be both virtual and in-person events this year!
We hope that the virtual platform will allow for more readers since travel time is cut and the volunteer obligation is only 1.5 hours from the comfort of your home or office. We can also have readers from ANYWHERE, not just our local area. We are also excited to bring readers back into our schools, for those that enjoy the in-person interaction with Greek friends, sweet students, and grateful teachers.
We are collecting books for all of our schools. We need approximately 350 books this year- so please donate and share the link with your organizations, friends and family!
For more information, contact G.R.A.N.D. Founder & Coordinator, Brandi Nunnery brandi.nunnery@mnps.org.
