Many of the children do not have a book at home; very worthwhile program.

I met Mary French in October 2002, and my husband and I have been a part of the Project since then. We began donating dictionaries to our local schools in 2005. I continue to be proud to be a part of the Dictionary Project.

This will be our second year of donating dictionaries to our local grade 3 students in four different schools. What a joy to watch their faces as they receive their dictionaries. Thank you for this opportunity.
Tom Adams, Rotary Club of Silver Creek, Troy, IL
As we are a newly chartered club, this is our 1st year doing the Dictionary Project. Another local club, Goshen Rotary, sponsored our charter and jointly did the Dictionary Project with us last year as they covered our service area until we formed. With their help we have expanded and excited for the opportunity to help those within our school district.
