The 5th annual Head Start Book Drive with Roundabout Books and SELCO Community Credit Union is underway. NeighborImpact aims to collect 1,350 new books for Head Start and Early Head Start children and families this fall. SELCO Community Credit Union, as a long-standing partner, has pledged to match each book donation received, doubling the impact of each generous contribution. The drive has collected 541 books so far, which, with SELCO’s match, leaves them just 134 books from the goal.
Through this book drive, NeighborImpact seeks to nurture a love for reading among young learners and empower 667 Central Oregon families expand their home libraries to create literacy rich homes.
