Books On Tap 2021

WOW! Our 10th annual fall fundraiser, Books On Tap 2021, was our most successful yet!

We raised over $25,000 dollars for early childhood literacy!

Whether you enjoyed selecting a mystery bottle of wine from our Advisory Board-sponsored Wine Pull, tasted cotton candy from our friends at Cottontale KC, struck a pose with My Social Shutterbug KC's Photo Booth or played some pickleball, this year's Books On Tap at Chicken N Pickle was unforgettable.

A special thank you to everyone that helped us surpass our $2,021 Fund-A-Need goal totaling $2,165 during and after the event!

We want to extend a HUGE thank you to The Patterson Family Foundation and all of our Books On Tap Sponsors that have made this event possible!

A special thank you to the ROR-KC Advisory Board for sponsoring the Wine Pull!

Please help us thank our Books On Tap Committee volunteers and staff for their time and dedication: Ellen Quinn ROR-KC Event and Communications Coordinator, Megan McClure Co-Chair, Ashley Rovirosa Co-Chair , Eli Colmenero ROR-KC Board Chair, Karen Houston Howell, Meredith Maag, Anh Pham, Brandy Reed and Victoria Whitebread.

We already can't wait until next year!

Thank you to our event sponsors!

Will You Sponsor a Child's Success in 2022?

Each year we host three signature events (For the Love of Books Breakfast, Race to Read Family Walk and Books On Tap), which bring in more than one-third of the funds we need to buy over 65,000 books each year and train medical providers to administer our program.

Sponsors enable us to host these fun events and build literacy in our community. Sponsorships are for everyone - individuals, organizations and businesses.

Please consider sponsoring one, two or three of our events in 2022! Questions? Please contact ROR-KC Event Coordinator Ellen Quinn at equinn5@kumc.edu or call 913-588-3073 today
