Description

It's time for Summer Reading 2024: Read, Renew, Repeat at the George Hail Free Library! Library users of all ages are welcome to participate. We use prizes and special events as incentives for reading all summer long. Participants will log their reading and earn raffle tickets to enter into prize baskets, which will be drawn for at the end of the summer. They will also earn smaller rewards for reaching milestones in their summer reading. If you donate, you will help inspire children ages 0-18 to read!

Warren, RI is sandwiched between two relatively wealthy East Bay Towns (Bristol and Barrington). Their libraries are more well funded, and thus the children in their towns have better opportunities. We are seeking donations of money or prizes (books, toys, games, giftcards, etc.) to work towards equity for the children of Warren.
