SMART Reading North Coast: Serving Clatsop, Tillamook, and Columbia Counties
Children at the mouth of the Columbia River and north coast of Oregon are becoming more confident readers, thanks to the many hours contributed by our generous and caring volunteers. In the 2024-25 school year, we served 171 students and gave away 970 books at 4 SMART Reading sites.
Our SMART Reading team and dedicated Site Coordinators are working hard to recruit new volunteers and raise the needed funds to continue to grow SMART Reading in this region. Our goal is to increase the number of children we are able to serve and have the opportunity to introduce them to the wonderful world of books and a lifelong love of 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).
