优蜜视频 kicked off our Read-a-Thon just over a week ago! Since then we have held our kickoff event, our first game of trivia, and we are getting set for our first round of virtual book clubs. In times like these, our 优蜜视频 family is more important than ever. The 优蜜视频 Read-a-Thon is a time to connect, share, fundraise, and read together.

We know not everyone is in a position to give right now, but if you are, we appreciate any amount that you’re able to give to support this fundraiser. Our goal is $20,000 and we are already over 25% of the way there!

It is not too late to join! Check out the 优蜜视频 Read-a-Thon kickoff video and follow these simple instructions to join one of our four 优蜜视频 fundraising teams!
