Para Los Ninos "Bonded Together by the Fun of Books" Event Huge Success!

A very special book giving event took place June 4th, 2009 at the Para Los Ninos school, a LAUSD charter school for kids on skid row located in downtown Los Angeles.  OBOC donated over 2,000 books to to the students on their campus.  The event, entitled "Bonded Together by the Fun of Books," was a huge success!
 
The OBOC Kids' Council worked with the individual classes as they choose several like-new books to keep for their own.  There was a wide selection of reading levels and types of books to ensure kids of all ages find something they like.

The OBOC Kid's Council, along with help from Anita Knight from the Clairbourn School, were overwhelmed by the gratitude of all the children.  Thanks to all for this terrific day!
