Mother Goose News

​

Donations from individual donors have slowed since COVID interrupted our volunteers from delivering free books to parents of infants. We've had to pursue grants from foundations.

 

We've been lucky enough to receive grants from the following foundations:

 

We've also been lucky to have kind people like Tina Bowman who organized a Facebook fundraiser for her birthday that earned $200 for Mother Goose: Read to Me! Thanks Tina.

 

However, since early 2023, our volunteers are back providing books at the YWCA, YMCA, The Pottstown Regional LIbrary and Mother Goose Story Time, Birthright, Family Services, Play Street, Diaper Bank, and Community Health and Dental Care. 

 

The more places we go, the more books we need. Since January 2023, we've given out over 1200 new books. 

More Help is Needed!
