Batty Book Drive

Posted: Nov 1st, 2017

In October patients brought in books to donate to the Children's Book Bank, a local non-profit that distributes gently used books to kids in the area with no books at home.  Patients wrote the name of their favorite book on a bat and let it "fly" it on our purple wall.  Donating books, earned patients extra *Bling, and a chance to enter into a drawing for a $100 Amazon Gift Card.  The book drive was a lot of fun and helped many local kids.  We are grateful for our awesome patients!

You can learn more about the Children's Book Bank at www.childrensbookbank.org. The quote below is from Jamie Ofstad, Development Manager for the Children's Book Bank.

"Your gift is making a difference for children in our community who are receiving books that encourage their imaginations to blossom; building curiosity and excitement for learning, and creating wonderful opportunities for special bonding time between parent and child.  Thank you!"

Over 200 books were collected during the Book Drive.

All sorts of fun early childhood books were collected including books by Dr. Seuss.
