Youth

VOV Book Club

Encourage your child to read — we do. Every book read is another open door.

The process of education has stopped because the amount of support has stopped. With the numerous distractions placed in people's lives and homes, education has become a tool for the wealthy. We have to change a child's life through reading. Vision of Veterans has designed a program based on reading to become successful.

Sign-up instructions

  3. 3Limit four books per month per child.
  4. 4The first 25 children are accepted into the program until additional funding is received.
  5. 5Books must contain a minimum of 100 pages.
  6. 6Each book must be education based, knowledge based, spiritual based or in good taste. No killing, demonic or destruction based books.

  8. 8Once approved, an e-mail is sent to the participant to start reading.
  9. 9Once the book is read, the child submits a hand-written report. Reports are read, analyzed and checked for plagiarism. Please make the report as legible as possible — no typed reports.
  10. 10Scan and e-mail the written report to bookclub@visionofveterans.org. Staff will reply with a phone number; the parent is required to call with the child for submission.
  11. 11Once confirmed, the child's information is logged with a star showing a book has been read, and the title and author are logged into the VOV Book Club database.
  12. 12After the second book is read, the child's name is submitted for a $20 Vision of Veterans gift card mailed to the child's address, with a tracking number for security. The card is rechargeable.
  13. 13The $20 can be used for school supplies, lunch money, clothing or anything that improves the child's situation.
Encourage a child to read. Education is the key to a successful future. Every book read is another open door.
