Your company would also have the option of sending a volunteer to read the book to a classroom on November 16th. The cost is only $25 and you may donate more than one book!
The event is fast approaching. We would appreciate your quick response. This great opportunity allows Windsor Businesses to join a collaborative effort to re-enforce the importance of reading. Call the Chamber of Commerce at 688-5165 to sign up. Mail a check payable to Kennedy School to WCC, P.O. Box 9.
