Role-out of Imagination Library Program, Ivan Butterfield, is Wednesday's Program

We will be launching The Imagination Library program for zip code 77338. This program will provide an age appropriate book to each registered child up to age 5. This program will complement our work with Lakeland Elementary. The benefits of exposure and reading of books at an early age has been well documented. Major findings included; children are taking ownership in the books received in the mail, children are more interested in reading, and parents are reading more to their children   If we only average one child per year to finish high school as a result of having received these books, the increased income for that one person in, their first year on the job will cover the cost of every child who received books in one year. This is a good return on investment.

Ivan Butterfield will share information about how this program works and benefits in preparing youngsters for elementary school and ultimately in life.
