“Freedom Through Literacy”
Est. 2010 in memory of Judith F. Krug
Barnes & Noble Wyomissing has selected — for the 5th year in a row — Judith’s Reading Room as its Holiday Book Drive Charity. The Holiday Book Drive kicks off on November 1, 2024 and continues through mid-December.
Wyomissing’s Barnes & Noble selected Judith’s Reading Room, a local nonprofit literacy organization, as their Holiday charity because it has consistently demonstrated that it knows how to get books into the hands of the most needy.
Judith’s Reading Room, a literacy nonprofit organization established in 2010 in the memory of Judith Krug, a librarian, this week donated dozens of books by #1 best-selling authors, Newbery Medal and National Book Award winners to Children’s Home of Easton (CHE) in Easton, PA marking 12 years of sustained investment in the future success of at-risk youth.
Judith’s Reading Room, a literacy non-profit, applauds the staff and customers of Barnes & Noble Wyomissing, Pennsylvania for supporting it as their Holiday Book Drive Charity. This holiday season, book lovers donated over 150 children’s books with a cover price value of $1,438.
Judith’s Reading Room was selected – for the 2nd year in a row – as the Barnes & Noble Wyomissing PA 2021 Holiday Book Drive Charity. The receiving organizations have provided the excitement and photos of the exceptional book donations! Check these out and come back to check for UPDATES!
Finally, Honorable Mention Awards (no cash award) are given to those applicants who the judges want to acknowledge and think deserve encouragement. The idea behind the Honorable Mention Awards is to propel the applicants to continue their literacy efforts and to apply for future Freedom Through Literacy Awards.
