Books are chosen by GSDRA for their appropriateness for young children and are dual language English/Spanish. Together with a note about the importance of reading to their newborns. Included in the bags is a free Parent/Family magazine. Book bags are then delivered by female members of both organizations to 6 area hospitals.

The District Foundation Committee approved on $500 of DDF for this project, as it does not meet the requirements for the additional $500 available as literacy grants which are very specific for K-3 education in Title 1 schools. Please revise this grant to reflect a request of $500 in DDF and it will be approved.
