The Dictionary Project is an excellent way for our Rotary Club to stay in touch with the students and the school district. The third graders are so bright and delighted to learn. Our visit is a special event for the children. Two Rotarians attend each classroom so we make sure all students participate in understanding how to look up words and use their books.

On referal from a Rotarian (my dad), our Kiwanis Club has adopted this annual distribution as part of Kiwanis “Read Around the World” project. This is our 4th year. This is one of the most popular service projects we have and it is so simple and fun! The third grade students are like sponges!
Jerry Ramsey, Rotary Club of Boise Sunrise, Boise, ID
This is a great project that involves many members of our Rotary Club. Members love to participate in the distribution and see the happy faces of children who sometimes are receiving their very own book for the first time.
