Your gift today will give the joy of reading to children in our community.

A recent report shows that over 26 per cent of Saskatchewan children live in poverty. There are still many families in our community that don't have ready access to technology, and few resources to provide at-home learning materials for their children.

RPL storytimes and children’s programs create opportunities for caregivers and parents to help their children develop early literacy skills.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we adapted these services to host storytimes and other children’s programs online. We even created a series of DIY storytime videos.

Don't let kids fall through the cracks!

Online offerings aren't the solution for everyone. 

Last year with your donations, we delivered 500 Summer Learning kits to Regina children living in vulnerable circumstances. Each kit contained everything needed for an at-home storytime experience, including children’s storybooks, activity booklets, and art supplies.

Let's help more kids. Give them the gift of reading.

Your gift today will help provide 1,000 Summer Learning kits to young families who rely on RPL for essential early literacy support. 

One Summer Learning kit costs just $25. Here's what's included: 

• Two storybooks
• Level Up! Gamecard
• Level Up! Bookmark
• Level Up! Trading cards
• Markers and pencil crayons
• Pencil and sketchbook

Donate today and develop the joy of reading in our community.

Summer Learning kits will be distributed through the City of Regina’s PlayEscapes summer camp initiative, local community centres, schools, and parks.
