We strongly believe children are more likely to value reading and have the desire to read when they have books of their very own to read and take care of. It is our mission to see that the children we serve have books they are proud to own. We would like to see that far more of the children in our area have books in their homes. Books Lift Kids is now in its eigth year. Books are collected at drop off spots at various times during the year, with a main drive in the Fall and are distributed in conjunction with Toy Lift.
