Sixers Reading Team

Read to Achieve presented by Mountain Dew is a year-round program that will promote the value of reading and online literacy and encourage families and adults to read regularly with young children.

Once again, the Sixers have a created a local Reading Team comprised of current and former players, other members of the NBA family, along with local media representatives who will promote reading efforts through in-arena events, Public Service Announcements, and community appearances throughout the year.
