Players from the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team headed two blocks south of their Home Depot Center base to Leapwood Avenue Elementary School to read and distribute books to students.

The event is a partnership between the Wonder of Reading organization, the L.A Galaxy Foundation and the Reading is Fundamental of Southern California, all of which work to promote family literacy
programs and a life-long love of learning, according to an LAUSD release.
