I believe this will be our 5th year of participating in the Dictionary Project. It is a very worthwhile project, does not require a lot of people or extra work, and just seeing the children’s faces light up when they receive them is extremely satisfying. An excellent program and so easy to make our orders through the internet.

This is the second year the CLCP has participated in the project. Great Project! Please give credit to the Seminole County CLCP and the Spelling Bee team who raised the money.
Martha Velasco, Rotary Club of Hispano-Latinos of SLC, West Jordan, UT
This is the third year of participation for our club. We support 7 schools in the Granite School District in Utah and a Charter school in Salt Lake City. We are pleased with the work of the project especially when books are updated. They are better each time they are improved for the students.
Philip Van Dusen, Kiwanis Club of Leesburg Sunrise, Clermont, FL
We have been doing the project for a few years. We have close ties to the schools and there are many very poor kids in this area that could not supply dictionaries themselves. This is a great asset to the community and we are proud to play a small role in your overall efforts.
Dave Schirmer, Rotary Club of Hamilton, Hamilton, OH
The Hamilton Rotary Club is personally handing 850 dictionaries to the Hamilton City School District and Parochial School System’s third graders. This is our 8th year of delivering dictionaries. Obviously our club believes in this project.
Joyce Hribar Fiebig, Rotary Club of Euclid, Willoughby Hills, OH
This is our fourth year distributing dictionaries to all third graders in the Euclid City Schools. We expanded our program last year to also include private and charter schools.

Jennifer Leuzzi, Rotary Club of Dansville, Dansville, NY
This is our 5th or 6th year doing the dictionaries and the 3rd year of the thesauruses. This is a good idea and promotes our club’s involvement in the community.
Joanne Cohn, MIT Womens’ League, Cambridge, MA
As a Rotarian whose club has sponsored a dictionary project for third graders, I know the value of these dictionaries and how much they are treasured by the students.
Dianne Davis, Winchester Elks Lodge # 1445, Winchester, MA
I believe this is our 4th year. The dictionaries are greatly appreciated by the students and we hope to continue for a long time. We are very pleased to be able to take part in this wonderful project. The notes we receive from the students are just wonderful. They seem to be really excited to receive their very own dictionary.
Harold Butler, Rotary Club of Arbuckle Sunrise, Ardmore, OK
We have been participating for the past 4 years. We have added two new districts (Springer and Plainview) within the last two years. This project is enthusiastically received by both students and teachers.
