This year The Friday Morning Bookclub is going to sponsor a child through the Reach Out and Read Military Program. The goal of this program is to ” help build routines and strengthen family bonds, which are so important to families dealing with separation and deployment.” What a great way to let our brave American service men and women know how much we appreciate what they are doing for us.
According to Reading Group Choices, forty-four military bases are participating in the Reach Out and Read program. Check out this program which allows you to buy books for a child or sponsor a child growing up in a military family! Perhaps your book club would like to join us and sponsor a child too.
