Clever Communities In Action hasn't added a story.
Each year we work hard throughout the month of February to raise money so we can purchase brand new culturally inclusive books and put them into the libraries of local elementary schools. Over the last five years we have donated over 800 books. Statistics show that children become more engaged in the reading process when they read books that allow them to see themselves in the characters and story-lines. It also raises self-esteem and cultural awareness. CCIA believes all children deserve this and with the help of the community, we provide it.
Our 2016 book recipients will be Saint Helena and Willard Model elementary schools. Our goal is to raise $2,500 in order to provide books to both schools’ libraries. Therefore, we need your help to make it happen again this year!
Fundraising begins February 1st and ends February 29th. You may donate via Paypal using donations@clevercommunities.org, visit the Clever Communities In Action Facebook page or on cleverspeaks.com. Cash donations within the Hampton Roads area may be dropped off at Positive Vibes Cultural Shop, The House of Consciousness, or Conscious Planet, or you may call 757.918.7879.
We appreciate our past donors and invite you to continue supporting us. We encourage new donors to join the movement. As a Village we will accomplish great things!!
You can view our previous year's efforts on the Clever Communties In Action Facebook page or the Cleverspeaks Youtube channel.
THANK YOU!!
