THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

What an evening! 

We are so grateful to everyone who supported Raising A Reader MA’s Dinner with an Author gala. It was beyond special to share, meet, talk, and hear the stories of so many partners in our mission. We could not have done it without our friends, our hosts & sponsors, and our truly outstanding and talented group of authors. Thank you to all who attended for your company, your patience, and your generosity. 

Together with 27 esteemed authors, 17 generous sponsors, 26 gracious hosts, and a full room of 250 guests, we exceeded our goal by raising over $350,000 towards RAR-MA’s efforts to close the literacy opportunity gap among young children and their families in under-resourced communities across Massachusetts!

“It was a wonderful event! Inspirational and moving on so many levels. The work being done is significant and impactful. It was also so great to meet many of you last night. To be seated with such incredible authors and talented/special individuals was truly a highlight for me.”
