 Stacy and Glen celebrate overloading the Free Bookmobile's suspension Well, ace book-drive coordinator Stacy Ruppert at United Way wanted to fill the bookmobile, and guess what? She did! The grand total from their book drive was 7,634 children’s books collected, plus 857 titles for adults. We are blessed with United Way’s partnership and thrilled to start giving these wonderful books away to lucky local kids…which we did this week, thanks to the fact that Stacy and her fellow staffers did such a great job sorting and boxing everything!
Huge thanks go out to all the participants, especially Exchange Bank for hosting most of the book bins at their branches, and JDS Uniphase, Amy’s Kitchen, Target in Rohnert Park, and St. John’s Elementary School in Healdsburg for coordinating their own mini-drives to support the project. What a generous community we live in!
