Site Sponsorship
Provide financial support to cover the program cost at one or more of our partnering medical sites. We will match you with a site based on geography, size or other factors important to you. Our team will provide updates about how your support is impacting that specific clinic throughout the year. Site sponsorships range from $500 - $25,000 per site per year.
Dress Down Day
Involve your whole office or school in supporting RORRI by having contributions from a Dress Down Day be designated to our program. Funds can be directed specifically to one of our sites or used for general support around the state.
Book Stickering
Come to the RORRI office in Providence to sticker and sort books so they’re ready to go out to our partnering medical sites. We are able to accommodate individuals and small groups including High School students.
Skills Based Volunteers
We can sometimes use the assistance of a professional in areas such as HR, marketing, technology, graphic design, translation, and data collection and analysis.
Book Collection
Some of our medical sites like to have gently used books available for their patients who are at the office for a sick visit or are past the age of the Reach Out and Read program. Sites are especially appreciative of high-quality chapter books for older children. Please see our book donation guidelines below.
We accept:
- Books for ages birth to 12
- Board books, story books, early readers, chapter
- Books in new/gently used condition (hint: If you wouldn’t buy it or give it to a friend, we don’t want it.)
We do not accept
- Encyclopedias, text books, activity books, coloring books, magazines, books with batteries, sounds or lights.
- Books with sensitive themes such as death, violence, religion or abuse.
- Damaged books with broken bindings, missing pages, soiled, musty, moldy, with smoke or water damage, or with excessive writing in the text.
High Impact Project
This opportunity is available to corporations, organizations, and foundations who are looking to make a major impact on our work here in RI. We are open to discussing site and program sponsorship that includes employee voice in book selection and branded stickers on books. We can also discuss multi-year projects as well as multi-dimensional projects that include program funding and volunteer opportunities. These projects begin with a minimum donation of $10,000.
