Got Books? Donate Used Kids' Books to Lake Zurich Rotary Literacy Program

If you have kids, you probably have books that they no longer want. Now Lake Zurich Rotary offers a place for you to donate those books and help needy children read better. "We're starting a local program to give children more opportunities to read," said Lake Zurich Rotary president Nancy Shepherdson. "Studies show that children who read well have a better chance to succeed in life and so we want to help more children discover the joy of reading." People who want to donate books can bring them to R Professional Group, 535 Telser Rd., Lake Zurich, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays. Or call 847-550-8631 to arrange for a pickup. Any amount of books may be donated; you may also donate cash to purchase new books and educational materials. Donations to Lake Zurich Rotary are tax-deductible.
