JLMN/SPA BOOK DRIVE

Immaculate Conception benefits from a Book Drive

A SPA supporter, The Junior League of Montclair-Newark, held a Book Drive to benefit the library and the classroom textbook supply at Immaculate Conception High School in Montclair.  It was a great success!  Over 350 literature-quality books, 200 magazines and a full set of National Geographic on CD Rom were collected!  Also, the Junior League purchased 30 copies each of three titles that the school requested for  their Literature classes.  These were purchased by the League from Watchung Booksellers in Montclair at a steep discount.  Shown below at left are Immaculate students with Tracy Crimmins, Director of  Development at Immaculate, and JLMN members Patty Topping and Bridget Sarubin, who collected, sorted and presented the books to the school.  At right is SPA student Sameerah Reeds happily displaying one of her school's new books.  Bottom row photos show Immaculate students eagerly sorting through the many books donated by JLMN.  Both SPA and Immaculate deeply appreciate the efforts and generosity of JLMN.
