Ryan's
Reading Tree
The Library Foundation and the friends and
family of Ryan Dickerson are embarking on a special
fundraising campaign to place a beautiful tree in the Modesto
Children's Library in Ryan's memory. An avid reader, Ryan
loved the library. He died suddenly last summer at the age of
18. This tree, a lasting tribute to Ryan, will create a
magical place for children to explore the wonders of books and
reading. To learn more about how
you can help, please visit www.ryanstree.com |
