Are your children registered yet for Imagination Library? United Way of the Quad Cities has a FREE program for all Scott and Rock Island County residents. If your child has not yet celebrated their 5th birthday, they are eligible for this program. There is no charge for this program. Each month your children will receive a new book in the mail. The books are sorted by age, so children in the same house do not receive the same book (unless they're twins or the same age) To find out more, or to register your children, click here: http://www.unitedwayqc.org |
