Read for the Record
Join United Way of Central and Northeastern Connecticut and Hartford Public Library in celebrating the 17th anniversary of Jumpstart’s Read for the Record®, a campaign mobilizing volunteers to read to students in the classroom.
Volunteers will read “Nigel and the Moon” by Antwan Eady in classrooms across our region.

Why this program matters:
Read for the Record is one way that United Way, along with our partners, highlights the importance of building early literacy and language skills for every child. Our goal is for children to enter kindergarten prepared to succeed and read proficiently by the start of fourth grade, which is a key indicator of future success. Together, we can keep children on track academically.
