      Mu Chapter is also looking for chapter members and community assistants who are willing to volunteer in a classroom donating an hour or two once a week, or even twice a month (whatever you can do! ) Info? Contact Gail at jg2kward@msn.com

     Books 4 Kids books will also be given out to the Northridge students in connection with this READ IN. Through a liaison with BORDERS' BOOKS, over 1000 books have been collected so far this year during book drives held by Borders' Books of Longmont. Mu Chapter is indeed grateful to BORDERS' BOOKS for their ongoing support of this project. Members sort and level the books by grade level for the students and present each classroom with boxes of books for disbursement to the students.
