For the month of May, the law firm of ReidGoodwin, PLC awarded Barack Obama Elementary the $500.00 Reading Corner Grant! The ReidGoodwin Reading Corner Grant will be used towards purchasing a new paperback book for each student on their birthday for the 2019-2020 school year! Ms. Bruner instituted this program for the 2018-2019 school year and it has been a huge success. Each student receives a brand new book and gets to have their name and birthday announced over the morning announcements. Congratulations to Barack Obama Elementary!
ReidGoodwin, headquartered in Richmond, has a history of community engagement – partnering with the likes of Richmond Animal League (RAL), FeedMore, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), Ronald McDonald House, Safe Harbor, Angel Tree, and more. Now, more than ever, our communities need responsible corporate citizens that give back to their community. “ReidGoodwin’s Reading Corner” is a natural extension to give back to the children in our community and support the educators and libraries in Richmond’s public schools.
For the month of June, ReidGoodwin will be awarding another $500.00 to a school to be used towards any project or need, such as purchasing new books for the library or new supplies. If your library or school has a specific need please submit a short proposal by Wednesday, June 26th, 2019.
Interested schools or libraries in the award should submit a brief statement to include a short description of how the money will be used. Proposals can be sent to Olivia Klele at receptionist@reidgoodwin.com.
We look forward to reviewing your proposals!
