Back-To-School Brunch

We kicked off the school year with our AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP Reading Buddies and Classroom Helpers in Black Hawk County and Buchanan County! Volunteers gathered for training, resources, and a chance to connect as they prepare to support students in grades K–6 throughout the year.
Through reading, classroom support, and meaningful relationships, our volunteers help students build confidence and a love of learning. We’re grateful for the time and dedication they give to our local schools and communities! |
