Rockville Rock'n Read Details

Glenallan Elementary School prepares to host students at their summer library.

In preparation for thousands of children using the school as a library this summer, Glenallan is bringing in the books.

                                  We deliver books rain or shine

This is one of numerous examples of book collection and distribution.

Last Saturday, we served breakfast at this shelter on Gude Dr. in Rockville, with Kiwanis Club of Rockville.

It was our intention to bring the books to other organizations which could use them.  We took a pause and realized that this is not a sustainable action.   It would keep us in the loop.  If we are going to help thousands of communities, the communities must be able to help themselves.

Erie Youth Center has requested books.   We can get them the books at no cost, but there is a shipping fee of $600 for 10,000 Books.   We ask everyone to join together to help a community, which is trying to raise itself out of poverty and crime.

Carolyn Thompson, Co-founder of Velocity of Books meets with youth advocates and stakeholders to discus bringing the Rock'n Read program to Erie, PA.
