We exist primarily to improve reading skills in low-income communities\, but our communities gain so much more. \nSelect sponsorship levels include our Fall into Reading cooking demonstration on November 4 from 7 pm to 8 pm with world famous Chef Geoff Blount. Read about his phenomenal showing on Food Network’s Holiday Baking Championship last year here: https://www.myrtlebeachonline.com/news/local/artic… \nDon’t miss this chance to watch the demo and receive treats prepared by a local celebrity! \n
