Carter County Imagination Library One Year CelebrationMarch 8, 2006Click Here for more photosThe Carter County Imagination Library has surpassed all enrollment expectations during its first year of operation. Nearly 1,200 children, forty percent of the preschool children in Carter County, have enrolled in the Imagination Library to receive a book each month until his or her fifth birthday. These books are provided at no cost to the family through the generosity of local donors, as well as the Governor's Books from Birth Foundation. The Elizabethton Kiwanis Club has recently set up a nonprofit corporation, Kiwanis Education Enrichment Program (KEEP), to handle local donations for the program. Donations of any amount are welcomed and many citizens sponsor one or more children each year at a cost of $27 per child. Carter County Imagination Library Foundation members were honored at the celebration.
