If you haven’t yet, register and enter contact info for 10+ people to support your adventurer’s home library and for the chance to unlock the next Treasure Chest. If you have already entered the contact information, but weren't in the first 50 your prizes will ship at the end of the event (Friday, April 19th). All those that have completed it will be entered in the treasure chest drawing each day this week. At the end of the event students that received funds will receive 10 books from their grade level. Funds over the requirement for the 10 books will go to providing books for other students. Books are Fun is a program dedicated to providing books for students, so they can build at home libraries.
