It's almost time! Kids Helping Kids, our community service project/book drive is set to kick off on February 1, 2011. As of today, we have 11 local sites that have agreed to be book donation sites, and we are hoping for more by the kick off date. One site, Roma's Preread Books, has already donated 3 boxes of books even before the project begins!
We're off to a good start but we still need your help. Club Managers and leaders, please "talk up" the project at your meetings. If every Rockwall County 4-H member donated one used children book, we would have 125 more books.
We are still looking for a location where we can store books throughout the drive. A climate controlled location would be best. There are flyers that you can pick up at the Extension office if you'd like to promote this project to other community groups you belong to.
This project promises to be a great success. It can be, especially if everyone pitches in to help.
Thanks!
