Did you know we’d love you to donate to our Annual Appeal and hope to entice you with some things your gift supports? Here are some fun (and yummy) statistics to highlight a few of those things:

• We give out over 1200 lollipops a year. And quite a few candy canes too. And 1200 children had early literacy fun.

• Science in the Summer students enjoyed 64 slices of pizza, 24 bags of chips, and 24 juice boxes. And 24 students experienced what space scientists do. 

• Teen volunteers dished out approximately 37 ice cream sundaes to celebrate summer reading. And those teens developed leadership skills to last a lifetime. 

• We conducted blind taste testing on 6 Oreo flavors and 6 Pringles varieties. And the original flavors won each time.
