George Weber, Rotary Club of South Louisville Okolona, Louisville, KY
Our club loves this program. I believe this is our 6th year. We started with two schools and now this year we are working with 15 schools. Now we will be giving over 1200 books to 3rd graders. To see the face on these kids when they receive their book is unbelievable and the appreciation from the teachers and principals is terrific. We feel... Read More

These dictionaries have such good information and they help children learn to “GOOGLE” a book.
Ben Shelby, Rotary Club of Apple Valley, Apple Valley, CA
The Apple Valley Rotary Club has been providing dictionaries to all 3rd graders in the Apple Valley Unified School District for at least 15 years. The Dictionary Project is a lifesaver! Without your support, out club could not afford to provide these dictionaries to all our students.
Ellen Alligood, Stephens Education Literacy Foundation, Toccoa, GA
My second year participating in the program! I think it is a great program and very necessary.
Bryon Harrington, Rotary Club of Springerville, Springerville, AZ
We have been doing this project every year since 2001. We believe it’s a valuable project and the teachers have been asked if it’s still worth while, which they all agree it is.
Marilyn Scott, Rotary Club of Ventura-South, Ventura, CA
The program works well. It is inexpensive and the web site is easy to use. The children benefit greatly because of this.
Ervin Peters, Kiwanis Club of Buhler, Buhler, KS
We have been doing this project for several years now. Love the dictionaries – they have so much more information than a regular dictionary.
Christopher, Waterloo Elementary School, Waterloo, SC
Dear Dictionary Project, Thank you for sending the dictionary to me. This is the best dictionary I have. I am really happy to have it. I like it because it is new and it is mine. I can use it when I don’t know what a word means. Sincerely, Christopher
Christina Curley, Ballston Spa Elks Lodge # 2619, Ballston Spa, NY
We make a visit to each of our elementary schools that participate with us to make a presentation and then distribute the dictionaries. Our Lodge has participated for the past 3 or 4 years consecutively. We had been involved prior to that on and off. We love visiting the schools and watching the children’s reactions when we say they get to keep the dictionaries... Read More
Valerie Edwards, Stockton Elks Lodge # 218, Stockton, CA
Our lodge has been participating for quite a few years. This is my third year doing the project. I am a retired teacher and this project is very necessary to the teachers and the students who receive them. With this aide, they can fulfill the teaching standard of dictionary skills. Without dictionaries in hand it is almost impossible to do. I think it is... Read More
