We need your help!
We are collecting and donating new children’s Books for Babies to Cadence/Delnor Hospital in Geneva, and Rush Copley Medical Center in Aurora. Books provide families of newborns in the hospital or NICU, with a NEW children’s book (Age 0-2 years). Books provide support for families as they spend time at the hospital. Reading to babies is soothing, creates bonding, and provides that special first literacy experience. We believe this is a very worthwhile community project!
If you cannot join us, and would like to donate, please contact:
Bobette Dodson at bkdod1414@gmail.com or Jean Kindelin at kindelinj@gmail.com
Thank you!
