Page Ahead currently produces one fundraising event a year that requires volunteer assistance. We also hold a public book drives at events such as a yearly Seattle Mariner game. Volunteers can be involved on many levels - from planning and preparation to execution and follow-through. Commitment varies and most hours are evenings and weekends.

At these book fairs at-risk kids grade K-2 will select 12 brand new, free-to-them books to take home for summer reading. For many of these at-risk children, this will be the first book they own.
