Read Across America

Aligned with the spirit of Read Across America, the Rotary Club of Marion aims to cultivate a love for reading among young minds in the community. As advocates for literacy and education, the Rotary Club's volunteers eagerly participate in this annual reading motivation program celebrating the birthday of the beloved children's author, Dr. Suess!.

Sponsored by the National Education Association (NEA), Read Across America is an inspiration, encouraging children of all ages to embrace the magic of storytelling and the transformative power of books. In collaboration with local schools, libraries, and community organizations, the program offers a diverse array of events and activities designed to ignite a passion for reading and instill a lifelong appreciation for literature. With a firm belief in the profound impact of literacy on individual growth and societal advancement, the Rotary Club of Marion enthusiastically joins the initiative, ready to make a difference in the lives of young readers.
