Read to Lead: Book Collection!

         
        Do you have stacks and stacks of children’s books at home? Would you like to donate them to a charitable cause? Youth and Government is collecting children’s books for its 2013 service learning project, Read to Lead. Through the end of March, you can drop off your children’s books in Mrs. Giordano’s room, room 124. Members of the club will be putting a handmade bookmark in each book, telling children of the importance of reading. Then, Youth and Government will send these personalized books to the areas that were hit by Hurricane Sandy. The goal of this project is to replenish lost book collections in these areas and to spread the joy of reading to young children! Help the club reach as many children as possible by donating your children’s books!
