Seedlings also has a program called "Adopt-A-Reader" that would be available to the little girl you're tutoring. For that program her parents would need to fill out the form indicating she is interested in becoming an adopted reader. She would be matched with a donor. Once adopted by a donor she would receive a $100 gift certificate to pick books from the Seedlings catalog. <br></span></div><div dir="ltr"><br><span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1436797150590_2692"></span></div><div dir="ltr"><span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1436797150590_2692">I hope this helps!</span></div><div dir="ltr"><br><span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1436797150590_2692"></span></div><div dir="ltr"><span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1436797150590_2692">Thanks for helping this little one on the road to literacy!</span></div><div dir="ltr"><br><span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1436797150590_2692"></span></div><div dir="ltr"><span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1436797150590_2692">Pat Loder</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1436797150590_2693"><br></div><div> </div><div class="signature"><div id="yui_3_16_0_9_1404414176341_7">Community Outreach</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_9_1404414176341_9">Seedlings Braille Books for Children</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_9_1404414176341_10">734.427.8552</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_9_1404414176341_11">www.seedlings.org<br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_9_1404414176341_12"><br></div><br> </div><br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; margin-top: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue-Light, Helvetica Neue Light, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Kaiti Shelton via Pibe-division <pibe-division@nfbnet.org><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Professionals in Blindness Education Division List <pibe-division@nfbnet.org> <br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Cc:</span></b> Kaiti Shelton <crazy4clarinet104@gmail.com>; National Association of Blind Students mailing list <nabs-l@nfbnet.org> <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Sunday, July 12, 2015 4:41 PM<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> [Pibe-division] Free braille books<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container"><br>Hi, everyone,<br><br>At convention there were announcements to see Pat Maurer in the back<br>of sessions for information on how to get free braille books for<br>children. I'm tutoring a little girl in braille this summer who I<br>think would benefit from this program, but I wasn't able to get back<br>there myself. If anyone was able to get that information and can<br>share that with me I would appreciate it.
