1000 books


It has been quite a busy summer!

We are about to send a shipment of somewhere around 1000 (one thousand!) books to the children. Yeah! I am hoping this will inspire them to READ. As you know reading builds vocabulary and improves grades in school.

We have been given some beautiful books. Something for everyone, from basic preschool level to chapter books for young adults. The magic School Bus to Harry Potter.....
Books have been donated by individuals (THANK YOU Cindy Homer!) Groups (The wonderful kids from Vacation Bible School) and local drop boxes.
We will continue to collect books as these will be on their way to Nepal very soon!
