After the Race for Reading, many people expressed interest in learning more about FAVL as well as making donations. One generous donor came to FAVL with a large box of books that have been distributed to the libraries. The Race for Reading was a good publicity exercise for FAVL, and we successfully got the name out about our organization, even if a lot of people weren't able to participate in the race itself. Here's a couple pictures of the book donation.
