Fellow Rotarians,
I am pleased to present the following update to the distribution efforts of the Brain Game Books. As you may remember, Harbortown contributed $1000 last year for 100 brain game books along with contributions from Club 25 ($2500), Skyline ($500) and Pilgrim Congregational Church ($1000) for a total of 500 Brain Game Books.
This update is from our distribution partner, Every Child Ready Duluth (ECRD), Carmella Hatch. They have offices in the downtown Duluth Library.
All of the books have been distributed except for 15 of them, which we are holding for the First Ladies of the Hillside to distribute. We have offered these books to our different ECRD partners who work directly with families so they can now distribute them as they see fit. Here is the list of partners we sent books to:
- American Indian Community Housing Organization (AICHO)
- St. Louis County Home Visiting Nurses program
- Early Childhood Family Education
- Lifehouse young parents program
- Lincoln Park Children and Families Collaborative (LPCFC)
- Minnesota Masonic Children’s Clinic of Communication Disorders
- Steve O’Neil Apartments (SONA) supportive housing
- Women Infants and Children (WIC)
- YWCA childcare and young mom’s program
