BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF HALL COUNTY TO RECEIVE SPECIAL FUNDING

The purpose of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Hall County Library / Reading Center is to encourage and improve reading skills, vocabulary development, reading comprehension and to develop a more positive attitude toward reading for youth ages 6 - 12. The Library / Reading Center will provide members with the support, resources and guidance necessary to help ensure that all members are proficient in reading and help narrow the gap between advantaged and disadvantaged children. The library and program willoffer a structured time and place for Club staff and volunteers to help members with a vital aspect of the educational process – reading.
