We hosted a Family Reading Night at Bransford Elementary, thanks to a generous grant from Target. We read aloud to the children . Next, teachers worked with the parents, giving tips on how to read aloud. Each child got to pick a book of their very own, and we added a bookplate with their name on it. In addition, we hosted a raffle for the kids with different stuffed book characters (Oscar the Dog, for instance) and their matching books. The children had a great time and including the families was a good way to interact with more of the community.

Children from more fortunate schools throughout our school district are hosting a district wide bookdrive to support My Own Book. Last time we did this the kids collected 2,500 books!
This is a great way to unite kids in helping other kids.

Mix it up day is on November 13, 2008. We are asking all of the students in our school to participate by sitting at a different table at lunch. This will challenge the social boundaries and push towards creating tolerance. Friendships will be created and barriers destroyed while students enjoy themselves, listen to Music, and eat their lunch. For more information visit: http://www.mixitup.org

If we won $10,000 from Best Buy@ 15 we would use it to buy books! We just started buying books directly from publishers at sharply discounted prices so we could buy 8,000 brand new books. That would make an awful lot of happy children and spread the joy of reading in a big way.

We've learned events work- they create excitement and make the kids excited about reading

Volunteers like to be a part of events- they get to experience the difference they are making in the community
