also's Amazing Book Race
Since 2005, also's Amazing Book Race raises funds through individual pledges and institutional giving in support of this fun, literacy awareness event.
It is an energetic daytime event where teams of all ages race around Ottawa on foot or by bus. The teams race to independent bookstores and library branches where the team is given a literacy-based task such as illustrating a book or performing a story rap. Once all the tasks are complete, the teams race to the finish line. The event is loads of fun with great prizes to be won!
Since its beginning, the Amazing book Race has raised over $18,000 that goes directly towards helping also fund it's programs. Each year the race gets bigger with more and more teams participating. Not only does it raise much needed funds to support also's programs, but it also brings awareness to literacy in our community.
