Breakfast with Books & Snack T ime with Books

Volunteer Guide

Thank you for volunteering with the Breakfast/Snack Time with Books program. Below is information to
help you understand how the program works and how you can best assist us with the program
guidelines.

Register with Spread the Word Nevada (STWN) as a volunteer (if you have not already done so) using
this link: https://www.volgistics.com/ex/portal.dll/ap?ap=270410808.

 Please arrive at the school 30 minutes prior to the program start time.
 Check-in/sign-in at the school office and then go to the Breakfast/Snack Time with Books
program location.
 Our STWN facilitator will know that you are volunteering and advise you on where we need
your help. We distribute a book, snack and juice to everyone attending. Students will receive a
reading log and extension activity related to that month’s story. Everyone arriving prior to our
facilitator reading the story receives a raffle ticket. If a student returns a completed reading log
(from the previous month), they pick a prize from our treasure chest. You may help with the
book distribution; assist with the check-in table (by distributing the handouts, raffle tickets or
juice and snacks) or help with the treasure chest. We appreciate your flexibility in helping
where needed the most.
 The STWN facilitator will make announcements and read the story. Upon completion of the
story, we raffle six prizes to those families that arrived prior to the start of the story.
 Once the program is complete, we count any remaining books, snacks and juice and pack them
up for return to our office.
 Your time commitment is no more than an hour and fifteen minutes.
 If you have any questions, please call or email Jill Heintz, the Breakfast with Books Coordinator,
at 702.564.7809 or jill@spreadthewordnevada.org.
 If you are unable to make your scheduled volunteer commitment, please let Jill know so she can
alert the STWB facilitator.
