The 2017 Jam the GM Children’s Book Drive takes place once again throughout the month of January.
The Literary Alliance of the Shuswap (LASS) is challenging community members, businesses, organizations, and schools to “Jam the GM” with donations of gently used children’s books.
All books will be distributed to local organizations that provide services for families to then be taken home by children in the North Okanagan-Shuswap.
The kickoff for this event takes place at 10 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 5 at the Salmon Arm GM dealership.
Join LASS and community partners for a story time party with Ardie Burnham, Youth Services librarian. Take your gently used children’s books to “Jam the GM.”
Book donations are accepted at the dealership throughout January.
For other drop-off locations, visit the LASS website at www.shuswapliteracy.ca.
Look for the truck at the Silverbacks game on Friday, Jan. 20.
