Give Prizes

Through the Amazon Wishlist, you can donate items that will be used as rewards and prizes for the Schlow Library Summer Reading Program.
Your generosity in selecting and sending a gift from the Amazon Wish List helps the library obtain prizes (educational books, games, puzzles and more!) for children to earn as they work hard through the summer to read books and reach milestones.
Its easy! Click the link here, enjoy looking at items carefully selected by our staff, select the ones that you like, and complete the purchase. The items will ship directly to Schlow Library.
