SMART volunteers needed

SMART (Start Making a Reader Today) still needs volunteers at Mountain View Elementary in Corvallis to read to or with a child one hour a week. The time that you will commit is small and the rewards are high. Truly make a difference in a child’s life. To volunteer at Mountain View please contact Bob Bernard at (541) 745-5816 or scm170@aol.com. To volunteer for SMART in another area go online to http://www.getsmartoregon.org.
