The Service League of Cherokee County awarded a $2,800 grant to Debby Pinion, who teaches first grade at Woodstock Elementary School and volunteers with The Ferst Foundation for Childhood Literacy. The program provides books for local communities to prepare all Georgia preschool children for reading and learning success. Books are delivered every month, up to 60 times in childrens critical years of development. The program is free to participating families and it is made possible through the partnership with local Community Action Teams (CATs) and through private donations, corporate sponsorships and grants. The Service League grant will fund the delivery of one book a month for a year to 100 students.
