Imagination Library

I have been doing Sullivan County Imagination Library presentations at local civic clubs recently. I put together a Powerpoint that tells about what we are trying to accomplish. So far, we've done two Rotary Clubs and as of this evening, two Optimist Clubs. I go out with one of the other board members, which makes it fun. We show them the books the children get and talk about the importance of having books in the home and reading to children. The clubs have been very nice; we shall see if they come through with any money, however!

If any of you know of a club, church group, or other organization that we could go to, let me know. Our presentation is about 15 minutes long. We don't just ask for money; we talk about how giving books to pre-school children helps them become lifelong readers.
