Storytime Village will host a service project on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day that will support Little Free Libraries (LFL’s) in an effort to promote literacy for all age groups. On Monday, January 16, 2023, volunteers will help package children’s books and distribute them at Little Free Libraries across the community. Little Free Libraries are book-sharing boxes that provide an opportunity for book exchange. Storytime Village has planted libraries in underserved neighborhoods throughout Wichita since 2014 and we plan to fill all of our libraries and as many other libraries through the community as possible with the help of volunteers.
From 9am - 11am, volunteers will select and package books for all age groups. Volunteers will then transport the books to selected Little Free Library locations.
We hope that you will be able to support us in providing free books to our community in commemoration of the late Martin Luther King, Jr.

Mission Statement
The mission of Storytime Village, Inc., with the support of parents and the community, is to inspire a lifelong love of reading for underserved Kansas children from birth to age 8.
Description
Since its beginning in 2009, Storytime Village has worked to help the youngest in our communities thrive through partnerships that provide early childhood development, family engagement around reading and access to books.
Storytime Village, Inc. is a Kansas based children’s literacy nonprofit organization. With the support of parents and the community we inspire underserved children to read by providing them with free books and literacy resources. We recognize that, for children, books open doors to opportunities, new worlds and experiences, and overall build their self-esteem. For that reason, we strive to give every child in Kansas an opportunity for a better future through literacy.
