When parents see a need, we work together to find a solution.
Book Bins
Our goal is to get a book in every hand of every child in Lapeer County.
On average, children growing up in homes without books are three years behind children growing up in homes with lots of books.
We have set up several book bins in local area businesses around Lapeer County. Similar to a little free library, families can take a book or leave a book.
Would you like to help with Book Bins?
We are always looking for volunteers to set up book bins in new locations and to maintain book bins in their current locations. Volunteer once, once a week, once a month, or as often as you'd like - we welcome help at any level.
Immunizations
Ever wonder what immunizations your child needs so they can start school and where to go to get them? You aren't alone! Many parents wondered the same thing. Together, we created one flyer that has all the information parents need.
