Reach Out and Read is an evidence-based and cost-effective way to promote early literacy in children 6 months to 5 years old. As part of the program, each patient receives an age-appropriate new book at each well visit. Providers at St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children’s Reach Out and Read sites distribute over 10,000 new books per year.

Other special events supported by this fundraiser include:

  • Annual special needs carnival
  • Annual Down syndrome Halloween party
  • Annual special needs holiday party
