Room to Read (R2R) Coordinator: Brother Reynolds Jackson
Each year, Kappa Alpha Psi conducts a National Day of Reading, in partnership with Room to Read to share the joy of reading, promote literacy, education, and community service across the nation. During this nationwide day of service, chapters will connect with local elementary schools to read to students, donate books, and inspire a lifelong love of learning.
The Gainesville (FL) Alumni Chapter exceeds this standard by conducting its local Room to Read program on a monthly basis in partnership with four local elementary schools: Lake Forest, Metcalf, Stephen Foster, and St. Barbara Leadership Institute. On a monthly basis, the chapter engages 100+ kids (1300 annually) and 10+ classrooms. Together, we’ll continue empowering the next generation through the power of education.
