Do you delight in giving gifts...particularly the gift of literacy? The Gift Giver will coordinate the distribution of children's books & family materials to parents, guardians and children of the Together We Read family literacy program.
Every other month the Gift Giver sends gift packages that promote literacy to families. This helps break the cycle of low literacy that can be passed down from parents & guardians to their children. Family literacy is promoted by providing books to families so they can begin building their home libraries, & by sharing reading tips & parenting information with those caring for little ones.
