As part of her selection, Shudra joined Brian Raleigh from Raleigh Wealth Solutions in a radio interview that broadcast Saturday, February 10 and Sunday, February 11.  Shudra’s interview highlights the mission and success of Read and Feed, a non-profit literacy organization, and how members in the community can get involved.  You can access the interview below.

In addition,  Raleigh Wealth Solutions generously donated $1,000 to Read and Feed and is hosting a book drive in their office for the month of February. They extended their efforts by organizing a book drive during a Junior Canes game held February 23rd.  They are accepting new and gently used books intended for children in grades K-5.  The collection aims to collect books that honor diverse backgrounds and experiences, ensuring every child has access to enriching reading material.
