Grant #5 -
2009
Personalized Books Given to Children, Inc.
"Our mission is to promote the excitement of
reading, by providing first grade children with their own personalized
storybook. Secondly, to affordably involve small business in
education
and spending time with school children."
Your unrestricted grant of $200 was very much appreciated since there was a significant increase in material costs this year. Your contribution will help in providing personalized books to first graders in Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton School Districts.
"As always, Mr. Kennedy has come through with a quality product to support literacy development at Lehigh Parkway Elementary School. Personalized Books...provides books to children who do not have an abundance of books in their home environments.
"The students are always so eager to take their books home. Throughout the year they talk about their books or write about their experience in writers' workshop.
"Hats off to local sponsors who care to make a difference in the lives of our children."
Sincerely, Teri Delich and Stacy Schneck, 1st grade team at Lehigh Parkway Elementary School.
