At the end of a month which has highlighted public education issues in South Carolina, I was interested to see this in our Rotarian and our Rotary website
Rotary's Wide World of Books!
Rotary's Wide World of Books!
Participate in Rotary’s Wide World of Books and help a child learn to read!
LA2008 will feature an international Book Drive where Rotarians from approximately 171 countries will create a worldwide service project by giving a gift of literacy to the children of the seven Southern California Rotary Districts!
For many years, Rotary in the Southern California Districts has partnered with the Los Angeles Times and Reading By 9. This partnership will become a global initiative as every LA2008 Convention attendee brings a book to Los Angeles!
The donated books will benefit students in kindergarten through third grade in the Southern California school systems - students who rank among the lowest in the nation in reading skills.
