Assistance League of Bend will provide free books to children at a pop-up event on Thursday, May 5, at Redmond High School.
The book distribution will take place from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the high school parking lot, coinciding with NeighborImpact’s free food distribution program.
Each child will receive a Scholastic book pack containing four new books.
Families will be able to select age appropriate books based on their child’s grade level: K-2, 3-5 or 6-8.
This outreach is part of Assistance League of Bend’s Operation School Bell literacy initiative to help children continue to improve their reading skills and encourage a lifelong habit.
You can contact Janet Martin at programs@assistanceleaguebend.org or 541-389-2075 to learn more about their ongoing book distribution efforts.
