Read-A-Thon for Room to Read

On January 9th, the first Friday back from break, we will be hosting the second annual Read-a-Thon from 3:30 - 10:30 PM in the Library and Technology Center to raise money for Room to Read. They spend 85.8% of their charity budget to building libraries and delivering services. They got an overall score of 93.69 out of 100 on Charity Navigator! Over your holiday break, track down and or email all relatives and friends to raise at least $25 (hopefully much more). Our goal is to raise $4,000 this year! There will be prizes for the most money and most sponsors.

On Friday, January 9th, remember to bring your favorite books, pillows, blankets, and PJs!  See this spreadsheet to sign up to READ and to bring food and drink.  At 6 PM we'll have Lasagna in the PA Room.  If you have any questions email Chloe or Gaelan. 

Finally, we will also be collecting children’s books so that Yunxin can bring to a school in China. Here are some pictures from our donation last summer, they’re absolutely adorable!
