The 2015 Greater Lansing Book Drive is on.  You can make a difference in the life of a local kid, by helping promote literacy with the donation of a book.

The campaign says kids who don't read proficiently by 4th grade are 4 times more likely to drop out of school.

But it's more than just keeping kids "on the right path."  Those that have a real love of reading know it's about helping kids find the joy of becoming immersed in a story.

Michigan author Johnathan Rand said "Reading is not something you do-it's a place that you go."

Drop off new or gently used children's books to the MSU Federal Credit Union Main Branch, any local Lansing Ophthalmology office, or Quality Dairy store.
