Our friends at Working In The Schools (WITS) reached out to the McKinley Park News to share a fun and impactful local volunteer opportunity.

This not-for-profit organization focuses on literacy and activates volunteers to read with Chicago Public Schools students. WITS is looking for local help to read to Kindergartners, including 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Tuesdays at the McKinley Park neighborhood's Edward Everett Elementary School , 3419 S. Bell Ave., Chicago.

Other nearby volunteering opportunities include 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. Thursdays at Minnie Miñoso Academy , 3527 S Wallace St., and 11 am. to noon on Thursdays at Charles N. Holden Elementary , 1104 W 31st St, Chicago.
