Humanitarian Service Opportunity:
My Dad (Cara's) works for the LDS church. Please see below for this awesome service we can provide to the Philippines! If you are interested in donating, please drop the books off to my house before Dec 21st. Thank you!
We have been invited to help collect used and new children's picture books for a new library in the LDS Employment Resource Center in Manila, Philippines.
The missionaries in Manila are teaching English classes. Many students want to read to their families at home. The more English they hear, the better their chances for education to get them out of the poverty cycle. There are no lending libraries in the Philippines. The missionaries intend to establish a library, and make the books available to anyone in the area.
The books can be used picture books in good condition, or new ones. Paperback, hardback, and board books are welcome. They do not need Disney books as those are readily available in the Philippines already.
Please look through your shelves and see if you have some books you can share. A donation box is located in the break room on the first floor of Building Q and in the break room on the second floor of building S that is to the east of Britney's pod. The deadline for Donations is December 23.
Thank you for your generosity.
