TOASTERS WANTED
Do you have an extra toaster taking up space in your closet?
Donate it to Reading to Kids!
Reading to Kids is looking for toasters to use for breakfast on the morning of the reading clubs. As you may know, we get donations of bagels for reading club Saturdays, and we would like to give volunteers the opportunity to toast those bagels!
Please contact Jessica.Tritsch@readingtokids.org if you have a toaster to donate.

The Leo Politi 2008 Centennial will feature events throughout the city including a yearlong exhibition of Politi's work, a countywide literacy campaign, and more.
