Laura Landis, New London Grange # 2401, Nova, OH
We have been giving dictionaries to third graders in New London Schools for several years, maybe 6 or 7. The kids and teachers love them. The books are a great value. They contain not only definitions but a lot of other very good information for students.
David Wimmer, Rotary Club of Oregon City, Oregon City, OR
We think this is a FANTASTIC project and the students really seem to enjoy it and are VERY appreciative. Besides the heartfelt “Thank You”s we receive when presenting the books, we usually receive many cute and thoughtful “Thank You” letters from students and teachers.
John Howell, Rotary Club of East Portland, Vancouver, WA
We have been participating for about 5 or 6 years. We are excited to participate in this every year. It is one of the most rewarding youth programs that we participate in.
Jeff Roadcap, Linville-Edom Ruritan Club, Broadway, VA
We think this is a very worthwhile program and always enjoy seeing the kids’ faces light up when we tell them the books are theirs to keep and they can write their names in them. They get so excited.
