 Dear Friends,
You are invited to the YES Reading Selby Lane Center for a community open house with California State Assemblymember Ira Ruskin (D-Palo Alto) on Monday, October 15, from 3-5pm.
The 2007 Nation's Report Card shows that California ranks dead last in literacy among low-income children. The open house is an opportunity for us to discuss the importance of this issue with an elected official who has the power to do something about it. It's also a great chance to open the Reading Center to the broader community to promote awareness about the problem of children's literacy and the important work YES Reading is doing to address it.
Please join us on 10/15 and please pass this invitation on to anyone who you think would be concerned about the state of child literacy in California. The more of a turnout we can produce, the more clearly the Assemblymember will hear the community's concern.
If you are able to attend, please RSVP via email to info@yesreading.org with your name and the number of guests you will be bringing.
I look forward to seeing you on the 15th!
Best Regards,
Michael
