December is a busy and festive time of year with events and family gatherings to celebrate the holidays.   You can share in the spirit of the season by giving the gift of a book from Assistance League’s December Wish List which has an extensive range of books for elementary students.

Assistance League partners with Title 1 elementary schools throughout Northern Virginia to serve low-income children with limited resources.  The non-profit helps students at these schools develop a love of reading and sense of pride in owning books of their own through its Build A Child’s Library program.  These events give every student in a school the opportunity to choose a book that interests them.

You can share in the delight these students experience in choosing their books by making your own selections from the wish list that ranges from the ever-popular Pete the Cat and Magic Tree House books to selections from the I Survived series and NASA’s Hidden Figures. Use this link: https://tiny.alnv.org/7gs or scan the QR code on the flyer to make a selection.  Please select the Assistance League of Northern Virginia as the shipping address to assure prompt delivery.
