The 2020 Elementary School Book Project, Still a Great Success

December 23, 2020/in January 2021, Newsletter

On December 15, 2020, GBA Elementary School Project Co-Chair Adam Kerr delivered a set of more than 200 well-wrapped books from the Greensboro Bar Association to David D. Jones Elementary School. Even though the pandemic meant that GBA members did not get to personally put the books in the hands of every K-5 student in the Traditional English program this year, we kept as much of our holiday tradition intact as possible. As in years past, GBA members generously donated more than $2,600, and the books were purchased through Jones’s Scholastic Book Fair, which provides the school with points that can be used to purchase new books for the school library and classrooms. Unlike in years past, we were not able to wrap the books together at the holiday party, but several volunteers stepped up and offered to wrap books at work or home, including:

Melissa Byrd (and staff at Schell Bray PLLC)

Sarah Holmes Crumpton

Judge Lora Cubbage

Susan M. Fradenburg (and staff at Fox Rothschild LLP)

Eloise Hassell

Diane Lowe

Joseph Petrack

Elizabeth A. Ray (and staff at Crumley Roberts, LLP)

Ashley Sappenfeld (and staff at Lanier Law Group, P.A.)

Mary Nelle Smith

Michele G. Smith (and staff at Hill Evans Jordan * Beatty PLLC)

Thanks go to everyone who donated their time and money to make this program successful! Sufficient funds were raised to purchase additional books as gifts for all fifth graders graduating from Jones Elementary this year in both the Traditional English and Spanish Immersion programs,
as well as to make a donation to the school’s Food Bank.
