This year ended on a particularly happy note when we received a special donation in December from The Richter Family Foundation in honor of Martha R. Richter. Minnesota BookPALS was chosen to honor Martha "as it embraces her desire to connect with people in meaningful and transforming ways."
And that's exactly what our dedicated volunteers do by sharing their love of reading and inspiring children throughout the Twin Cities and beyond. Thanks to all of you who read in classrooms and at special events this past year.
I'd also like to thank our school partners and other supporters, including Patty McDonald, Black Box and VISI for StoryLine; Red Balloon and Wild Rumpus children's bookstores; the Anderson Center; Education Minnesota and First Book. Here's to our continued collaboration in 2009!
