Announcing The Loft Stage Community Outreach Book Drive!
Attention, all ERHS community: we need your new or gently used children’s books! The Loft Stage will be running a book drive throughout all performances the of the fall musical, AIDA, from November 8th – 17th. The books we collect will be donated to Books for Africa, a non-profit, working to increase literacy and improve access to education by putting books in the hands of African children. We will be accepting donations of new or gently used children’s books, preferably classic novels and children’s picture story books at each of the AIDA performances. Cash or check donations made out to Books for Africa will also be accepted at AIDA performances. A collection box for early book donations is now conveniently located in the ERHS Music Suite hallway. Please help end the book famine in Africa with The Loft Stage and Books for Africa.
