Metro Area
Clackamas, Multnomah and Washington Counties
The SMART Reading Metro Area team implements SMART Reading and raises funds to support SMART Reading in the Portland Metro area. In the 2023-24 school year, we served 3,486 PreK through third-grade students and gave away 32,282 books. We are focused on recruiting more volunteers and establishing strong financial support among our communities to ensure we can continue this important work of empowering local children through reading.
Volunteer Opportunities:
Volunteers are a vital part of our mission. We can’t provide reading support and books to local kids without YOU! To find a list of SMART Reading sites near you, click here (or call 971-634-1628)
