This is our third year distributing dictionaries. The teachers are very happy to have the Rotary continue the program.

Our club has just started their 6th year and has been doing this project from the beginning. Everyone loves to talk to the kids and share the dictionaries with them.

This is the second year our club has sponsored this program for our county school system. The genuine thankfulness of the 3rd graders last year when they received their dictionary was priceless!

This is our 3rd year. We give the dictionaries to all the 3rd graders every year. We also check on the 4th and 5th graders to be sure they are using them (they are). Very successful, lots of good press. Great project.

The AT&T Pioneer Volunteers are a non-profit organization. We have been participating in the Dictionary Project for a number of years now.

AT&T Pioneers are pleased to help students in communities where our members live and work.

This is the second year we have donated dictionaries to local schools, and the teachers and principals are thrilled. They like it even better that we are coming in early September. Thank you for what you are doing to promote literacy.

Our Rotary club has been donating dictionaries to third grade students of the Tri-Valley School District since 2005. This year we have added another school district – Halifax Area School District. Keep up the good work. This is truly a worthwhile cause.

The Norfolk Elks Lodge has been donating books as part of the Elks dictionary program now for the last 2-3 years. Not only do we hand out dictionaries to the 3rd graders, but we also give an American Flag, Drug Awareness coloring books, and book markers; and then say the Pledge of Allegiance with them. We think you folks are doing a GREAT JOB!!!
