Books for Kids!

It's never to early to start sharing books with children

Once again this year, Success by 6 and local credit unions are looking to share books with young children. Starting mid September all West Kootenay branches of the Heritage, Kootenay Savings and Nelson & District Credit Unions will be collecting gently used children's picture books.

"We know that many families have great children's picture books stored in closets or boxes that their older children don't read anymore. Why not donate them to younger kids so they can enjoy them?"

The Success By 6 team asks that people only drop off books in good condition and those that are suitable for children under 6 years of age.

On Credit Union Day, October 19 special events will be planned throughout the West Kootenay to give out the collected books.

Watch for our colourful displays coming in September. For more information contact 1-866-551-5437.
