Summer Reading at The Learning Way Childcare
By Marsha Guerrier | Executive Director
Returning back to The Learning Way Childcare we provided new incoming children of the summer program with our What it Means to Be Kind book. Each child took home the book so they may read at home and share their thoughts on what it means to be kind with their families.
With limited funds this year we were only able to provide support of supplies to 20 children. We look to increase this to 50 for the next school year with your help. This school year we have plans to sponsor a children’s holiday even where we will provide gifts of the What it Means to Be Kind books to 25 children.
I thank you again for your continued support I look forward to sharing with you all the success of the events in our next report. It is because of donors like you we are able to have such impactful projects in our community. Please continue your support by sharing our project with your network and to continue funding our project.
Again, thank you and I look forward to sharing more stories from our project team in the future.
Warm Regards,
Marsha Guerrier

Thanks in part to your contributions we were able to donate and distribute 50 books to area children for summer reading.
As part of the program we hosted story time and invited The Learning Way Childcare to engage the kids in an activity about kindness. The children’s parents’ were excited for the event and has encouraged the children to make plans for their summer reading.
We are planning our next reading event with our Back to School campaign. We will be providing more books as well as backpacks and school supplies to area children.

On March 24th our founder Marsha Guerrier represented the Yva Jourdan Foundation as a sponsor for the “Superheroes Against Bullying” hosted by the New Horizon Counseling Center. Thanks in part to your contributions we were able to donate and distribute over 30 books to area children for our Just As I Am Reading Program. The event was focused on discussing ways to stop children from bullying and give them to tools they need to defend against a bully. Our selected book ‘What It Means to Be Kind’ was a great addition to the conversation.
We are working with the marketing team of the Green Aches Mall to bring the reading program to the Valley Stream community with our annual Summer Reading Event in late June for area kids. As part of the program we will be providing children with books to read for the summer. As a sponsor we will be providing the registered children and their families our designated book as well as discuss our organizations efforts in eliminated bullying.
