Mission Statement
Changing young lives, one book at a time! Our mission is to raise literacy levels by empowering partners to instill in children a life-long love of reading and learning from birth and to enable free access to books and animation services.
About This Cause
Fraser Hickson is an independent library serving Quebec since 1885. We offer free public MINIBIBLIOs (mini-library service) and an Early Literacy Component all under the same umbrella. We mentor educators, parents, and volunteers creating the opportunity to instill in children the desire to read paving their future with lifelong learning skills and prosperity. We have developed almost 200 sites since 2013 and intend to go national! A MINIBIBLIO includes: Books selected from our collection; A training session on tracking; Replenishment of materials with a librarian’s assistance; Mutual partner promotion. The Early Literacy Component includes: Weekly reading activity by trained FH volunteers; Early literacy workshop for parents/educators; Early literacy tool kit and ongoing resources
