Share the Magic
Thank you to First Book Canada for donating over 600 books to the Calgary Learning Centre Share the Magic program. These books will be distributed to children so that they may share in the 'magic' of reading.
Giving children from low-income families the opportunity
to read and own their first new books...
First Book provides new books to children in need, addressing one of the most important factors affecting literacy – access to books. An innovative leader in social enterprise, First Book has distributed more than 65 million free and low cost books in thousands of communities. For more information on First Book, please click here.
Many children in Calgary have few books to call their own...
Share the Magic collects good quality, gently used preschool books through donations. Volunteers sort the books and take them to places where preschool children gather.
Volunteers read to the children and help them choose books to keep for their very own.
Find out how you can Share the Magic by organizing a book drive, donating preschool-aged books, volunteering or booking a visit by contacting the Family Literacy Manager.
