We have been participating for at least seven years. We feel this project is extremely worthwhile and the students love it, awaiting the dictionaries’ arrival with anticipation.
Estella Smith, Waller County Republican Women, Hempstead, TX
This is our 6th year! It is a very worthwhile project. We give the Constitution to the 8th graders, and children say, ‘You gave me a dictionary in the 3rd grade!’
Betty Borchardt, Kiwanis Club of Riceville, Riceville, IA
This is the fourth year that we have done this project. We are very pleased with the quality of the dictionaries that we are able to receive at a very reasonable price. This should make it possible for every child to receive their own dictionary.
Margaret Nuss, Mansfield Lions Club, Mansfield, TX
This is the second year we participated in this project. The students were excited about receiving the dictionaries. The teachers were very appreciative. Wonderful project!
Philomena Kanasky, Rotary Club of Suffern, Suffern, NY
We have been participating in the project for six years now and started with one elementary school in the district and now have included all five. The dictionary project is a wonderful project. All of the children look forward to using their dictionaries. The teachers and the principals appreciate what we do.
Kelly Cunningham, Kappa Kappa Kappa – Alpha Psi Chapter, Martinsville, IN
This will be our 3rd year to donate the dictionaries. We love this program and the dictionaries!
John Madden, Rotary Club of Hazleton, Drums, PA
It’s been a hit. The schools are very interested. Many families have no home internet access, so paper dictionaries haven’t been supplanted.
Larry Helminiak, Rotary Club of Sykesville, Sykesville, MD
The kids really get excited about these dictionaries.
Darlene Krueger, American Legion Aux. No. 180, New Effington, SD
Our students enjoy when they get the dictionaries. It’s nice to see the smile on their faces.
Richard Phillips, Kiwanis Club of Kernersville, Kernersville, NC
We are ready to distribute 1,037 dictionaries to the 3rd graders in the Kernersville/Walkertown area for this year. In the past years we have given: 2008- 1,013; 2009- 990; and 2010- 901. Our Kiwanis members enjoy giving as much as the kids enjoy receiving.
