City's First Readers is a new program designed to pool the efforts of major literacy organizations throughout New York to get kids reading.
This Wednesday, July 20th, from 10:30 a.m. until 12 p.m., Woodhull Hospital will transform into the site of the city’s first Literacy Celebration: Representatives from nine organizations operating as City’s First Readers will be on hand giving out free books, providing resources for parents, and raffling off prizes in an effort to increase literacy among children under the age of 5.
