Sean Jackson, President of the Rotary Club of Grass Valley presented our literacy contribution of $500 to Sandra Barrington, Executive Director of the Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital Foundation. 

When a child is exposed to reading at a very young age, it opens up the world to them.

They do better in school, bond with family, engage their imagination, and so much more!

Since 1998, Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital Foundation’s Read Me A Story Program has provided free books at pediatric offices throughout Western Nevada County for children through eight years of age. Read Me A Story encourages families to read together so your child will reach their full potential when entering kindergarten.

The Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital  (SNMH) Foundation touches and saves lives every day by helping the SNMH deliver superior healthcare. We support outreach programs, education, state-of-the-art technology and facilities through philanthropy and volunteerism.
