Teen Buddy + Kid Buddy = Summer Reading Fun!
 
Reading Buddies

Are you too old for summer camp but too young to work?

The Ocean County Library can help!

Teens can mentor a young child while having fun and earning volunteer hours at the library.

  • Support your love of reading by becoming a Teen Reading Buddy!
  • Make a difference by being an enthusiastic reading role model for a young child!
  • As a Teen Reading Buddy, you will be partnered with a young child who needs reading practice over the summer. You will help the child practice his/her reading and listening skills in a fun and encouraging atmosphere!
  • Make friends

.

The teen volunteer program, “Teen Reading Buddies” is being offered to Ocean County teens that have completed 6th grade.
