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!’

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.

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!

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.

This will be our 3rd year to donate the dictionaries. We love this program and the dictionaries!

It’s been a hit. The schools are very interested. Many families have no home internet access, so paper dictionaries haven’t been supplanted.

The kids really get excited about these dictionaries.

Our students enjoy when they get the dictionaries. It’s nice to see the smile on their faces.

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.

South Fork Grange has a service project called “Words for Thirds,” and this is our 8th year giving dictionaries to every third grader in Ritchie County, West Virginia. The children enjoy the dictionaries, and we enjoy giving them the books. We have some that tell us that they use them in Middle School and High School. That makes us feel good. Thank you for...
