RAT Social Media Hub

Why We Created This Hub

Social media should be fun, not frustrating—but between creating graphics, writing captions, and finding time to post, it can feel like a second job. That's why we built this Social Media Hub. We’ve done the heavy lifting so you can share your Read-A-Thon story without the stress.

LP Social Hub Image (7)

Your Social Media Game Plan

We’ve stocked this hub with everything you need, but it’s just your launchpad.
Use our ready-to-go graphics, captions, and ideas, then layer in your magic: your school's name and/or mascot, photos of your Read-A-Thon in action, leaderboards, shoutouts, and updates.

Why this hub works: The more you engage, the more your posts get seen. The more your posts are seen, the more successful your Read-A-Thon will be!

Here’s the simple play:

Social Media LP (3)
Pick your post. Post 3x a week to raise BIG.
Social Media LP (2)
Download each image in just seconds!
Social Media LP (1)
Copy the caption and mix in your own flair.
Social Media LP
Post, tag us, and rally your community.
Want to personalize the images? Use our Canva templates to tweak colors, swap in your school name, or add custom touches.

FUN AND EASY FUNDRAISING?

WE MAKE IT POSSIBLE. YOU MAKE IT POWERFUL.

With Read-A-Thon your school can earn 4-5x more than with traditional fundraising! And that’s only the beginning. You can:

RAT_Email_9_Assets_V1.2_Library_Lovers
Get kids excited about reading
RAT_Email_9_Assets_V1.2_Library_Lovers
Engage the entire school community (and beyond!)
RAT_Email_9_Assets_V1.2_Library_Lovers
Run a successful event with less effort than it takes to arrange a playdate
