The WSU chapter of the Mortar Board Honor Society is partnering with local elementary schools for its next event, a book drive where the chapter will accept donations of elementary-level books to send to Wichita elementary schools and put them into the hands of young readers.
“Our organization strives to give back to Wichita and its community when and where we can,” said Aiden Holt, president of WSU Mortar Board Honor Society. “In this age where social media is drowning out almost everything, I would love for Mortar Board to be able to bring a love for reading back into grade schools, and maybe even help a child find the perfect book.”
Students and the rest of the campus community can join the cause by donating any elementary-level books they still have that they are not using anymore. To get more information on our organization or drop off books, find the Mortar Board Honor Society between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 26 in the Rhatigan Student Center.
