LARRS Special Events Page
The Los Angeles Radio Reading Service is comprised of a hearty staff of community volunteers who walk the extra mile. Throughout the year we enjoy many festivities and fundraising opportunities. Besides raising vital operating funds and raising awareness of our important mission, we also seize the opportunity to get together and celebrate life!
Whether it's a Rose Parade Broadcast or Helen Keller's Birthday Party, every single LARRS volunteer knows that what we bring to the community is quite special. The following event listings will give you an idea of what we're up to during the year and hopefully inspire you to join our merry band of active community volunteers.
