What is Read United?
Read United is a year-round series of programs that aim to improve early language and childhood literacy for all children in Bryan, Chatham, Effingham, and Liberty counties.
The most visible of these programs is Read United Day. On this day, United Way volunteers and community leaders will read and give books to over 19,000 children in the region. It is through sponsors and donors that we are able to place books in the homes of students in Pre-K through second grade across our service area.
