Current Stories

Altrusa International of Temple, TX, has a goal to donate 10,000 books over the next two years (starting August 1, 2021) in support of the International Project, Change One Million Lives, One Book at a Time.

Here is what you need to know so that our club may track our progress:

  • The project includes physical books and audio books, not pamphlets, magazines, newspapers, brochures, etc.

  • Our club will be tracking:

    • the number of books donated and,

    • the number of “literacy hours” associated with those books.

      • Literacy hours include time spent collecting, preparing and delivering those books in addition to any time books are read to others. For example, shopping for books, inserting Altrusa Book Plates, delivering the books and then sitting to read the books to children.
