This is awesome!

📚 Helping Young Readers Build Bright Futures!

The Adams Health Foundation, along with the Adams Health Philanthropy Committee, is proud to support the Imagination Library—a free book-gifting program that mails high-quality, age-appropriate books to children from birth through age five.

This wonderful program helps foster a love of reading and gives local children the opportunity to build their own libraries at home. We are grateful to the Adams Public Library System, Berne Public Library, and United Way of Adams County for partnering to make this special program possible in our community!

Thank you to everyone helping put books—and brighter futures—into the hands of local children! 📖
