Brilliant Books

November – December 2016

Aim

The benefits of being read to are too numerous to mention; amongst them - children learn about the world, they learn about people and places, their imagination is inspired, their thoughts deepen and they explore a billion emotions. They themselves learn to read and write and then the whole world opens to them.
Each year, at this time the team at MumKIND will seek input from far and wide to change the lives of children who may not have ever experienced a book. So….
If you have books at home that are now redundant to your family, or if you’re able to donate any number of books for boys and girls, who mightn’t otherwise possess them, please join us.
It’s our aim to collect 200 books to distribute this Christmas to children aged from new born, toddler and beyond.
We will designate a number of collection spots around South Australia but please PM us any time if you’d like to be involved and please help us by spreading the word far and wide.

Outcome

We were absolutely bowled-over to receive deliveries of over 1,000 books from every corner of the state and all in beautiful condition.

We sorted all of the books into gender and age-specific parcels and delivered these in time for a wonderful Christmas and felt good knowing that these would be opened
