Book Drive Helps Kids Get Head Start
The NeighborImpact Head Start and Early Head Book Drive kicked off this week at Roundabout Books in Northwest Crossing. After a successful book drive in 2020, NeighborImpact is excited to partner with Roundabout Books and SELCO Community Credit Union for this third annual event. The 2021 book drive aims to collect 1,000 new books for children in our Head Start and Early Head Start programs. Books go directly to children in the program and help families expand their home libraries to create literacy rich homes.
“Head Start and Early Head Start children and families benefit from this book drive by building home learning libraries,” said Kim Brown, Director of NeighborImpact Head Start and Early Head Start programs. “Building literacy and language skills help children to be kindergarten ready, so they enter school with a love of books and are ready to learn.”
