Description:

Help pack & stack boxes of children's books once a month that are given out to kids in pediatric clinics around the KC Metro.

On the second Tuesday morning of each month Reach Out & Read's Book Coordinator needs help in the early morning (from approx 7:15am-8:00am). Perfect for early birds who want to help but have a busy schedule!

The project takes only about 30-40 minutes but it's a huge help for our book coordinator. It requires a little muscle as some of the boxes weigh up to 40 lbs.

Monthly packing & stacking takes place in the pediatric unit at KU Med Center. Free parking and unlimited access to our candy jar would be provided.

Reach Out & Read's Packer-Stacker must be:
-Willing to commit to assisting 1x a month
-Able to lift up to 40 lbs
-Available from 7:15am-8:00am on the 2nd Tuesday of each month
