Bookmobile News

With an inspiring endorsement of the quality of our children’s services, Petaluma Community Foundation has renewed its support of the Free Bookmobile’s visits to Petaluma’s kids in need. This year witnesses the tightening of their Collaboration for Youth At-Risk around key organizations Mentor Me, Committee on the Shelterless (COTS), Boys & Girls Clubs of Southern Sonoma County, and the Free Bookmobile.

One of the Collaboration’s methods will be to utilize COTS’ and Boys & Girls Club’s well-established community networks to help find more volunteers for Mentor Me, which has a long waiting list of kids who are desperately seeking mentors to make a positive impact in their lives. As well, PCF Executive Director Marilyn Segal will lead the other agency heads toward supporting new Boys & Girls Club CEO Robert Marcus as he seeks to enhance his program services. And the Free Bookmobile will continue to promote literacy and love of reading by offering its high quality books to participant children and families at all three of these partners’ facilities.

A big thank you to Petaluma Community Foundation not only for their financial support, but for their leadership in bringing the best of Petaluma together to deliver even more value to the community!
