The Brant Community Healthcare System Foundation’s Annual Read4BCHS program encourages readers of all ages and abilities from the community at large (individual readers, families, groups) as well as classes from both local school boards to read, raise, record, and get rewarded – all while supporting the youngest patients at the Brant Community Healthcare System.

All proceeds of this event directly benefit the youngest patients at the Brantford General Hospital.

About Read4BCHS
As the BCHS Foundation kicks off our 6th Annual Read4BCHS event, we encourage our surrounding community to remember the 4 R’s, Read, Raise, Record, and get Rewarded! Read4BCHS inspires an appreciation of reading, all while raising much needed funds to support the youngest patients at the Brant Community Healthcare System. Read4BCHS is a community-wide reading and fundraising event that engages individuals of all ages and reading levels and reminds us that reading takes us to all sorts of places and connects us to new communities and friends!
Reading Raisers are asked to register with Haidee Scheers by emailing haidee.scheers@bchsys.org. Once you have shared your plans to register, you will be provided with a five-digit code and can follow the BCHS Foundation’s step-by-step tutorial on how to create your Reading Raiser individual or team profile. Throughout February 4th to 26th we encourage all participants to read, record, raise! As you read and reach your goals, remember that there are great prizes to be won for top fundraisers and readers! As you earn your badges for minutes/books read don’t forget to record for a chance to win a weekly Read4BCHS gift basket.
