WAKE Up and Read

Conn is collecting for Wake Up and Read's 10th Annual Children's Book Drive. We need books for babies, toddlers and elementary school children up to 12-years-old that children and families are excited to read and proud to own!

Wake Up and Read's goal is to provide two new books to each child at their partner schools and daycare centers.Your support will help ensure that ALL children have access to the books necessary to foster a love for reading and the literacy skills to thrive!

WAKE Up and Read is a community coalition committed to ensuring each and every child - regardless of race, ethnicity, and socio-economic status - is reading on grade level by the end of 3rd grade. We believe that literacy is a right and all children need access to high quality books.
