Our Impact

“Hello Mrs. Cole,

My name is D’Neya Brown. My son Jordan Brown is a part of your BabyRead Program in the Seneca area. I just want you to know the we really enjoy the books that the program gives the children. They are very nice books and all of the kids love them. I love how our baby lady, Mrs. Gina, interacts with the kids when we meet. She is a very kind hearted person . . . The ALDI gift cards really put a smile on my face. Theirs also (after I cut up all of the fresh fruit.) But anyway I truly appreciate you and what BabyRead does for the children.

Thank you. ”
