United Way Women's Leadership Councils have responded to United Way's call to action to increase the number of volunteers working on this important issue by one million, as we are committed to recruiting 100,000 volunteers. We know from experience that you begin volunteering to help someone else, and it ends up being you who wins in the end.

Research proves that caring volunteers working with students of all ages, have the power to help kids boost academic achievement and put young people on track for a bright future.  That’s why United Way launched this historic new effort to recruit one million new volunteer readers, tutors and mentors.  Learn more about volunteer opportunities and find out how you can get involved by helping kids read, tutoring students, or mentoring.  Learn More.
