Honoring Advisory Board Co-Chair
Brandon Lower

Join Reading Partners New York City at our annual benefit, The Next Chapter on May 5, 2026 at the Bowery Hotel! 

The event will honor Brandon Lower, Advisory Board Co-Chair and Managing Director, Head of Financial Sponsors Group at William Blair, for his dedication and service over the last eight years. His steady leadership, strategic insight, and deep commitment to our mission has helped shape the organization to where it is today. 

In 2011-12, Reading Partners launched in NYC with just 7 school partners. Today, we partner with over 25 schools and community organizations, annually engaging more than 1,400 volunteer tutors to deliver high-impact, evidence-based literacy tutoring to over 1,300 students.

Over cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, 350 guests will gather and engage with individuals, organizations and companies who are passionate about literacy and educational access. The Next Chapter celebration offers a variety of sponsorship levels for individual and corporate involvement.
