Whether you still read old-school paper books or you’ve made the switch to Kindle/Nook/ipad, this weekend you can give a boost to a wonderful charity with strong Lake Highlands ties when you make a purchase from Borders Books at stores or online.
Reading & Radio Resource (R&RR, formerly North Texas Radio for the Blind) is a non-profit volunteer agency that records books, textbooks, newspapers, magazines and vocational manuals for folks with physical, learning or vision limitations who can’t read for themselves. They’ve recorded more than 3,700 titles, and it’s run by longtime Lake Highlands resident Betty Hersey, who has a passion for helping these children and adults with visual or physical disabilities.
If you purchase a book this weekend, February 12 or 13, Borders will donate 10% of the sale to R&RR. Just print and present the coupon available at this link or enter the code when you order online. Says Betty, R&RR’s Executive Director, “you will truly be our Valentine!”
