✨📚 Help Spark a Love of Reading! 📚✨

GEAAC’s DEARS Literacy and Educational Development Committees are proud to host our Children’s Book Drive benefiting Annie M. Jeans Elementary School in Willowbrook, IL.

There is something powerful about a child holding a new book — the spark of imagination, the building of confidence, the quiet discovery that their story matters too. Every page turned is a step toward possibility.

Through March 31, 2026, we invite you to support our efforts to encourage a lifelong love of reading in our community’s youth.

📱 Scan the QR code to donate children’s books and make an impact — one story at a time. 💜

Together, we are strengthening literacy.
Together, we are expanding access.
Together, we are shaping brighter futures.

Scan. Donate. Impact.
