Women & Philanthropy Holiday Project: Encouraging Literacy
Women & Philanthropy recently partnered with the Judith Herb College of Education
to raise funds for the purchase of Scholastic books for every second-grade classroom
in all 40 Toledo Public Schools.
The program promotes early literacy for elementary students by focusing on encouraging reading in second grade: a critical year for developing reading skills.
Listen to Marcy McMahon, chair of Women & Philanthropy, talk about the program in a radio interview.
