Since 2014, Detroit Mercy’s Rx for Reading Detroit has distributed over 200,000 books to low-income children and families in Metro Detroit. That’s more than one book for every child in the city of Detroit.
Now through the New Year, a loyal Rx for Reading Donor is matching all donations up to $5,000. It is easy and fast to give a gift through the Detroit Mercy Giving Page.
Or, give the gift that keeps on giving. In less than two minutes, Detroit Mercy employees can set up automatic payroll deduction (designate Rx for Reading as the College/School/Program): https://www.udmercy.edu/giving/forms/fac-staff-giving-and-payroll-deduction.php.
2 minutes + $5 a paycheck = 175 brand new books
In just one year of giving, $5 per paycheck allows us to purchase 175 brand new books for children who need them. That means every single month you’ll be giving 14 books to kids in our community!
Give a gift to Rx for Reading Detroit and help raise the next generation of readers and leaders—and future Detroit Mercy college students!
Give to Rx for Reading!
