In January, one of the most beloved members of the Baby-Sitters Club forum on Proboards passed away after a long struggle with illness. We decided that the best way to honor our friend Afton’s (Aln1982) memory would be a book drive done in conjuction with the Lisa Libraries. As many of you may already know, the Lisa Libraries is Ann’s own charity, which was set up to donate children’s books to libraries in need. We have set up a wishlist on Amazon. Once purchased, the books will be sent to me, and a special bookplate will be inserted. Then I will transport the books to the Lisa Libraries, and afterwards they will be distributed to libraries, bringing Afton’s love of reading to children across the country.
So if you can, please consider donating a book, in honor of someone who was very special to all of us in this BSC community.
