“Change for Literacy” Hosting a Meet and Greet with American Girl Author

fhsu 310 ethiopia readsThe Fort Hays State University Leadership 310 team, “Change for Literacy” will be hosting a meet and greet with American Girl Author, Jane Kurtz, in order to help bring awareness to an international and non-profit organization called “Ethiopia Reads.” The American Girl Author presentation will be held on April 27th at the FHSU Robbins Center from 2p-4p. Kurtz is the author of the American Girl “Lanie” Books.

 

FHSU Ethiopia Reads is proud to bring the event to Hays, KS for the first time. The American Girl Author presentation will take place from 2p-4p and will involve children’s learning activities and drawings for prizes. Tickets for the drawings at this event are available now and will also be available for purchase at the event for a recommended donation of $1 each. The main drawing prizes are Jane Kurtz’s autographed American Girl Doll, “Lanie” and an autographed FHSU sports package. Attendance is free for the community and donations are welcome.

 

There are also donation jars located throughout the community at many of your local restaurants and businesses. These jars will remain in the community throughout the month of April.

 

Ethiopia Reads helps Ethiopian communities by building schools and libraries, providing books to enhance education and training librarians. Literacy rates in Ethiopia average under 50% and Ethiopia is ranked 195th out of 196 countries for adult literacy.

During the holidays, we are reminded that Christmas is a time of joy, happiness, and generosity; yet there are children in Ellis County who are unable to enjoy the spirit of the season. The goal of the “Christmas for Kids Telethon” this year is $65,000 and we need your help to support and touch the lives of children in Ellis County.

Throughout the year, there is an average of 60-70 children on a waiting list that are in need of companionship, someone to spend one-on-one time with them, someone who is there just for them – to make them feel special. Big Brothers Big Sisters is committed to improving the lives of children in our community, and depend on the generosity of those who understand the importance of taking care of our children. The community opened their hearts last year, making it possible for us to match 106 kids this year with positive role models. A successful telethon will allow us to match each one of the children currently on our waiting list.

 

Please pledge your support…

During the telethon only:
call 785-301-CARE

Before and after the telethon:
call 785-625-6672

You can donate online:  https://www.christmas4kids.net/

 

Regardless of your financial commitment, please join in the fun of the telethon that is televised live Sunday, December 2nd from 12:00 to 5:00 p.m. You can watch it on Eagle Cable Channel 14, listen to it on KHAZ 99.5 FM, or join the excitement of a live broadcast at James Motor Company in Downtown Hays. By watching, you will be able to enjoy entertainment from local community groups and have a chance to meet successful matches and some of the children who are currently on our waiting list for a Big Brother or Big Sister.
