Literacy Pledge Drives


This is how my Literacy Pledge Drive Program works:

• Parents pledge to read with their child for 15 minutes each night for 5 nights.
 • Parents collect pledges in support of their reading initiatives. They ask for a suggested donation of $1-$2 per night of reading ($5-$10 pledge). Each family’s goal is to raise at least $25. Prizes are given to families at the $25, $50, $100, $250 and $500 pledge level. 
 • After all pledges are collected and the parent has read with the child for 5 days, the family can choose books from Barefoot Books for up to 50% of the total amount of their pledges. 
 • Parents turn in their pledge forms, money collected, along with a filled out order form for Barefoot Books. 
 • The school collects all the pledge money and places a school book order for the other 50% raised.  
 • All monies raised, sponsor pledge forms and order forms (from the school and parents) are then turned into myself. 
 • Once the books arrive and prizes arrive, they are dispersed to parents and the school library. As your Barefoot Ambassador, I handle everything for you.   For every dollar raised: Earns Parents .50 worth in Barefoot Books Earns the School .50 in Barefoot Books
