About the Read-a-Thon

The Read-a-Thon is a reading marathon that raises funds for essential programs at Glenview. Students pledge to read 30 minutes a day and collect donations from generous supporters like you.

Our Goals

The Read-a-Thon is one of Glenview’s two annual fundraising events. In addition to inspiring our students to read more, we hope to raise $120,000 for essential educational programs like literacy interventions, music, PE teachers, mental health interns, classroom supplies, field trip funds, and lots more.

All donations are tax-deductible (TAX ID 94-6172195)
