United Way Teams Up with Airbus, LPGA, & MAEF to Take Flight Through Reading

On May 21, Airbus employees and their first and second grade reading buddies at Gilliard Elementary were joined by LPGA plyers Kristy McPherson and Charley Hull for an event celebrating the children’s reading endeavors.

As part of a Mobile Area Education Foundation program, Airbus employees read regularly with their student reading buddies. In celebration of their hard work, golfers McPherson and Hull visited the students at Gilliard Elementary. While there, McPherson and Hull read a story to the elementary students and taught them how to putt.
