The Perry County Literacy Council has just finished another successful
Race for Reading in the Perry County schools. We want to thank the students, the
teachers, and our generous Literacy Partners for their support of our
annual reading fundraising event.
We’ve brought the schools, the community, and local businesses
together in an effort to promote reading and to fund adult literacy
initiatives in our county. We
want to thank all of our supporters for helping to make this year’s
Race for Reading in the Schools a success.
Our Race for Reading Gala Dinner is the other facet of
our fundraising campaign. We
hope you can join us.
