ANOTHER Inspirational Story!

2 Apr 2010 by Deika Morrison, No Comments »

The boys of the Interact Club of Jamaica College deserve special mention!  For those of you who do not know, Interact is for ages 13-18.

They contacted me over a week ago to say they wanted to do a book drive at school to collect books to make a donation for the Guinness World Record attempt.

They asked for boxes, I gave them boxes.

They said they had DESIGNED THEIR OWN FLIER.

They CREATED THEIR OWN EVENT PAGE ON FACEBOOK! http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=109294475753660&ref=ts

In less than a week, they asked me if I could arrange for the books to be picked up since they had no where to store the more than 400 books they had collected already!

This is what this is ALL about – getting the youngsters excited about a project focused on reading, literacy and books!

See some photos below!  When I get all the names to thank I will!  For now, special mention to Terence Thompson, President and Joel Higgins!
