Children’s books, Kiwanis and reading

November 17th, 2008 · No Comments · Books, Children, Kiwanis

Today I enjoyed an hour of sheer joy!   Along with several of my fellow Kiwanians and community volunteers, we read either one-on-one or in small groups to local children in our community’s early care and education centers.

Our club takes part in a program called Reading is Fundamental.  We fundraise and purchase quality picture books, arrange to read them to young children, and then the children get to take a copy of the book home to enjoy again and again. Rolemodeling and sharing the joy of a great book with a young child is delightful!

Volunteerism will become more and more important as our economy struggles.  Look up this program in your community — you won’t regret a moment of it!
