SUMMARY:Holiday Children's Book Drive 2024
DESCRIPTION:Click to SHARE this flyer \nThis holiday season the Literacy Council of Frederick County is partnering with ACNB Bank\, Curious Iguana\, and Phoenix Mecano for our 18th Annual Holiday Book Drive to provide new and gently-used books for elementary school aged children (PreK through 5th grade).  Last year\, over 900 children’s books were donated! \nThe Literacy Council works with adults 18 years and older\, many of whom are supporting families and young children.  Providing appealing\, age-appropriate books to children fosters literacy at a young age and helps to break the cycle of low literacy in families. The donated books from this annual book drive are given to parents of children in elementary school who are participating in the Literacy Council’s tutoring\, parent literacy\, workplace\, or class instruction programs. \nThe Literacy Council works directly with the Judy Center and Butterfly Ridge\, Hillcrest\, Lincoln\, Monocacy\, Tuscarora\, and Waverley Elementary Schools to provide programs at the schools for parents whose children attend these schools\, and many of our other students also have young children with whom to share the books. Books will also be distributed to children at community outreach events throughout the year. \nSuggestions for younger grades include: board books\, picture books (fiction and nonfiction)\, early chapter books; and for older grades: mid-grade chapter books\, paperback series\, graphic novels\, and STEM titles.  Donors often like to share a childhood favorite or just encourage the habit of reading in a child. We request no religious holiday themed books so that we are not limited in distributing them. \nTo participate in the Holiday Book Drive\, you may purchase and donate books between November 15 and December 23 at Curious Iguana (www.curiousiguana.com) in downtown Frederick (12 N. Market St.) – please designate your purchase to the Literacy Council’s Holiday Book Drive and Curious Iguana will collect them in a bin at their store. \nDonated unwrapped books can be dropped off at these ACNB Bank locations between November 15rd through December 23rd: \n2 North on the Square: 2 North Market Street. Frederick\, MD 21701 \nAspen Ridge: 165A Thomas Johnson Drive\, Frederick\, MD 21702 \nCrestwood: 6910 Crestwood Boulevard\, Frederick\, MD 21703 \nWalkersville: 200 Commerce Drive\, Walkersville\, MD 21793

SUMMARY:Stuff the Bus
DESCRIPTION:The Literacy Council is again participating as a collection site for the United Way’s Stuff the Bus School Supply Drive. Stuff the Bus is a way for the community to come together to help young people succeed in school and is a way for the Literacy Council to support family literacy. Help share this flyer too! \n33\,138 (32%) households in Frederick County struggle to afford basic necessities (https://www.unitedwayfrederick.org/challenge-ALICE)\, so they find it very difficult to afford needed school supplies. This drive helps ensure that all children have the supplies they need to do their homework\, take tests\, and complete projects. With this drive\, more than 3\,000 Frederick County students receive supplies and support to learn. It is a simple but important way to help children succeed in school! \nSTUFF THE BUS VIRTUAL DRIVE: \nThis year the Literacy Council is also supporting online donations for school supplies through the Stuff the Bus virtual drive organized by the United Way of Frederick County which runs Monday\, June 2 through Monday\, August 4. The virtual drive allows for cash donations to purchase school supplies: \nhttps://fundraise.givesmart.com/vf/STB2025/team/LiteracyCouncil \nDonations of any amount are most appreciated. Here are some examples of what different cash donations might purchase: \n     $15 buys pencils\, markers\, and crayons for one kindergarten student \n     $30 supports one elementary student with basic supplies \n     $50 provides a middle school student with basic supplies and notebooks/binders \n     $100 buys a high school student basic supplies and some of the required learning tools \nSTUFF THE BUS IN-PERSON DROP OFF: \nYou may drop off your donation of NEW items at the Literacy Council office Monday – Friday\, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.\, beginning Monday\, June 2 through Monday\, August 4. \n \nPlease drop off items in the collection bin in the lobby of our 110 E. Patrick Street entrance to the library (the administrative entrance where our door is located.)  You can enter through our door or the front double doors on Patrick Street.  Those doors will be unlocked between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Complete list of needed items HERE. \n  \nThank you for helping us Stuff the Bus and helping FCPS students start the school year with the supplies they need to succeed! \nFor more information about Stuff the Bus and how to donate\, visit https://www.unitedwayfrederick.org/stuffthebus
