Summary: October 7, 2010 marks the day of Jumpstart's Read for the Record campaign which aims to break a world record for having the most people read the dame book on the same day. This event is also inpartnership with the Pearson Foundation. The Center for High Impact Philanthropy wanted to participate in this event by reading this book online. You can also participate by visiting: http://www.readfortherecord.org/site/PageServer?pagename=prepare_online. In Pathway to Student Success: A Guide to Translating Good Intentions Into Meaningful Impact, Jumpstart was identified by our Center as a Promising Practice for "Building school readiness skills through increased time in one-on-one relationships with trained, caring adults." Autumn Walden and Ashley Bernard took some time out of their day to read and record The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats. We're happy to be a part of this great event to promote reading and literacy not only in the United States, but around the world.
