‘Incredibly Meaningful And Encouraging For Our Students’

Participating in The Phund’s Reading Makes A Difference program for the first time, Coldwater Canyon Elementary students in North Hollywood, CA, enjoyed being able to give Jester books and dolls to UCLA Health Burbank Pediatrics Clinic by participating in the three-week program.

The school’s top reader was a fourth grader who read 2,494 pages while Lilia Preza’s fourth grade class read 4,769 pages, more than any other classroom.

Nicole Cisneros, Practice Manager of the UCLA clinic, said she was delighted to introduce her patients to The Jester Has Lost His Jingle book and Jester & Pharley Doll.

“What makes this program especially meaningful is its powerful message,” said Principal Jenny Godina. “Not only does it motivate students to read and build strong literacy habits, but it also connects their efforts to a greater purpose. Regardless of the number of pages read, each participant receives a certificate, which is incredibly meaningful and encouraging for our students.”
