Reading Buddies
Bristol TN/VA

How It Works

Volunteers are partnered with a student/buddy and meet with their buddy on a weekly basis for just 30 minutes each time. Volunteers are welcome to sign-up as a Reading Buddy for more than one student.

Volunteers engage the student in various literacy activities, such as reading aloud to the student, listening to the student read, and other relationship-building activities.

Thanks to our awesome volunteers, students in the Reading Buddies program are gaining much more than critical literacy skills! Reading Buddies mentors provide an added boost of encouragement and connection from a caring adult, which is vital to a child's success academically, socially, and emotionally.
