Featured Event Highlights

AFRICAN AMERICAN READ-IN

In conjunction with Black history and education, the McDonald’s of Greater North Texas partner with the Dallas Chapter of Continental Societies to host Dallas African American Read-In events

The goal of these events is to honor African-American authors during Black History Month and to encourage kids to read. College Presidents, Lawyers, Judges, Police Officers, and Librarians are invited guests that read books written by African-American authors to all in attendance. This partnership with Continental Societies is to further the pledge to promote reading and literature in our African American community.

 

McDonald’s provide each child attendee with a McDonald’s backpack filled with school supplies and a book written by an African American author.

About Continental Societies, Inc. - Dallas Chapter

The Continental Societies, Inc. is a national organization with a mission to create healthy educational environments and opportunities to empower children. Over the past five years, the Dallas Chapter has serviced over 300,00 children. More importantly, the members of this chapter are committed to improving the quality of life for all children. But, our approach is about more than just giving donations. We have dedicated thousands of volunteer hours every year for the last 41 years to support children in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. We support children through outreach programs, in youth centers, schools, pediatric wards, homes for the delinquent and wherever there is a need. Continentals volunteer through tutoring, mentoring, after-school programs, health events, food drives, clothes donations, walk-a-thons and much more. The Dallas Chapter of Continentals is especially active in the community and we rely heavily on the generosity of sponsors and donors.
