Thank you to Dr Carol Carruthers for your generous donation of the book "Let's go on a litter hunt" by Lyn Leventhorpe, Sue Adams & Nadine Reignier. Each child went home with a book and we had enough to pass out to some children in the community.
Impact Statement: WEBS Training Center Book Dash Giveaway
Through our recent Book Dash Giveaway initiative, WEBS Training Center distributed 500 books to children in low-income areas, directly impacting 500 families. This effort aligns with our mission to empower underserved communities by fostering early literacy and educational engagement. By providing these resources, we are planting the seeds of knowledge, encouraging a love for reading, and opening doors to future opportunities for these young minds. This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to uplift and support those in need, contributing to long-term community growth and development.
