Give the Gift of Recreational Reading

Although the "Gift of Learning" program is a year-round program--your contributions are welcome and can be put to use at any time during the year--it is most active during the months of August through November for the traditional holiday season.

You can become a part of the Gift of Recreational Reading program with a single tax deductible donation . . . the cost of a single book. Of course we would hope you could afford more but the MOST important thing is that you help. All you have to do is buy a book, making your selection from the abbreviated list below.* We handle distributing them to interdiction -- anywhere in the world.. If you have a preference, just tell us in the "remarks" box on the payment screen where you would like them sent. The center will be asked to agree, in turn, to give individual books to individual children--books for them to keep as their very own.

You can use your PayPal account to order safely and securely online. (Don't have an account, open one today. It is FREE and makes on-line shopping fast and secure. ) Or if you prefer, you can order by mail by sending your selection, along with cash, check, or money order to:
