Books from Birth Fundraiser 2008 kick off meeting 8:00 a.m.  –  10:00 a.m.

As part of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, Books from Birth of Middle Tennessee is a wonderful program that provides free books to all preschoolers in Sumner, Williamson and Davidson Counties. Almost 30,000 children are signed up in our area (5,000 in Sumner Co.!), and we are excited about the annual event to help raise awareness and money to pay for the books the preschoolers receive. The first event in Williamson Co. raised $60,000 with almost 250 attendees.

Since last year’s event was such a great success – we are aiming for this year’s to be an even bigger success! And we want YOU to be a part of it.

We hope you can join us for a preliminary planning get together to talk about the event, share thoughts and ideas, and sign up volunteers to help. It’s a simple event: fun dinner and fun dancing – that’s it! No silent auction or fancy dress, just great fun with lots of people.

Now that school’s out we are ready to get together for a meeting, here are the details for the Preliminary Planning Get Together:

Date: Thursday, June 26th

Time: 8:00 a.m.

Location: The Hendersonville Chamber of Commerce (new location: 100 Country Club Dr Ste 104, Hendersonville, TN 37075)

We hope you can attend and help us plan the best event in the Middle Tennessee area. Come join in on the fun!

So we know how many to expect, please call Debby at 615-429-0278 if you can attend the meeting or if you can not make it and would still like to be involved.

Please mark your calendars for Nov. 14, 2008 – the date of this year’s most anticipated event in our community: the Books from Birth of Middle Tennessee benefit.

This program provides a free, age-appropriate, hardback book every single month to enrolled children from birth until their fifth birthday, at no cost to the parents and regardless of income. The books are a gift to all Tennessee's 375,000 children under age 5 and are mailed directly to their home. You can support your county's Imagination Library by registering your child to receive these books, by volunteering your time, and by raising money.
