We are so pleased to announce that through our successful auction at the 2024 Utah Readers Luncheon, we were able to donate over $1,000 to Project Read. We received the following in an email today from the organization's Executive Director, Shauna K. Brown...
"March is a time of growth—buds on the trees, longer days, and fresh possibilities. And thanks to your generosity, growth is happening at Project Read, too! Meet Todd. He’s been working in construction for years, but he dreams of moving up in his company. To do that, he needs to strengthen his reading and computer skills. Since August, Todd has been coming to class every Wednesday and Thursday night, bringing great positivity with him. Right now, he’s reading The Hobbit—a fitting choice for someone on a journey of learning and adventure! Your support makes stories like Todd’s possible. Because of you, Project Read provides the resources, classes, and encouragement adult learners need to build better futures. Every time you give, you’re not just funding a program—you’re fueling someone's next step forward. Thank you for believing in lifelong learning and for making a difference. Just like March brings the promise of spring, your kindness brings hope and opportunity to our students." We look forward to an ongoing relationship with Project Read in the future and hope to continue to make a difference in the lives of people like Todd. Thank you SO much to all who attended and helped to make the event, and our auction, successful.
