3WINTER UPDATE
Dear Audio-Reader Subscriber,
As 2021 draws to a close, we are excited to feature
some new changes to Audio-Reader’s programming
including additional content, new voices, more books
and more in-person activities.
As we enter our 50th year of services, and approach a
full two years of operating during a global pandemic, we
are proud to continue serving you, our listeners.
Many of our pre-pandemic volunteers have returned to
reading on-site, and several have even completed book
assignments they began back in 2019! We are thankful
to see more friendly faces and bring you the voices of
volunteers you have enjoyed hearing for many
decades.
We thank you for your patience as we continue to work
to provide the best service that we can. Once more we
want to express our gratitude to the many volunteers,
donors and supporters who keep our mission of sharing
the gift of sight through sound going strong.
Stay safe,
Audio-Reader Staff & Volunteers
