Just want to say a HUGE Thank You to all that have supported us at anytime and in anyway. It is because of your support that we have been able to put so many books in the hands of children and can continue to spread the love of reading in Kacey's name and memory. Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

We're still here, just taking some time to enjoy summer. Will be updating soon with a current book total and other information. We also plan to start working on some new events so that we can keep getting those books out into the hands of children and maybe have some fun in the process. So don't forget about us, the more support we have the more kids we encourage to read by giving them a free book!

Planning is underway for our next fundraiser to be held on Saturday March 17th. Lots of events will be going including a Scrabble Tournament, Word Bingo Game, free activity room for children ages 3-8, food (lots of food), t-shirts and more. Entertainment will be a Local Celebrity Spelling Bee where the kids can watch the adults spell those tough words - but not too tough.
This event will be held at the Argenta-Oreana Elementary School in Oreana. Lots of fun for all....and did we mention food???
The Foundation has distributed over 2000 books to children in less than 2 years and we plan to continue to help kids get excited about reading. So come on out on March 17th and have some fun while helping to inspire the love of reading. Mark your calendars now and watch for more information to come.
