Join Jumpstart’s Read for the Record as a Campaign Reading Partner

We’re out to break some records. Join us.

Jumpstart’s Read for the Record®, presented in partnership with the Pearson Foundation, is a celebration of literacy and reading that raises awareness about the early childhood education crisis in America.

When you become a Campaign Reading Partner, you’re joining a nationwide movement to prepare every child to succeed.

So, what are you waiting for? Become a Campaign Reading Partner now.

Who can become a Reading Partner?

Schools, libraries, community organizations, businesses and bloggers are all invited to join. To participate in the 2012 campaign, email us at rftr@jstart.org.

How can I help?

  • Pledge to read. Pledge to read Ladybug Girl and the Bug Squad on October 4, 2012.  
  • Host a reading event. Whether you are reading with a few children at home or with an entire classroom, Jumpstart wants to know about it! Tell us at rftr@jstart.org
  • Spread the word. Promote the campaign to your supporters. Post on your Facebook page, tweet about it, send an e-newsletter and more! 

What are the benefits?

Becoming a Campaign Reading Partner means supporting children when they need it most—during the early years of their education. In addition, you will:

  • Play a part in ending America’s early education achievement gap
  • Receive discounted bulk copies of Jumpstart’s official campaign book, Ladybug Girl and the Bug Squad by David Soman and Jacky Davis
  • Obtain national recognition through Jumpstart’s website and social media outlets
