NEWS RELEASE
ORILLIA MARIPOSA GRANDMOTHERS TO GRANDMOTHERS
*************************
The Orillia Mariposa Grandmothers to Grandmothers group is hosting their annual book exchange Feb. 16-18 from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at St. Paul’s United Church (62 Peter St. N., Orillia).

You can bring up to six of your gently-used books and exchange them for books that others have donated. Tea, coffee and baked goods made by the local grandmothers will be served. A craft table will be available as well.

There is no charge to attend the book exchange, but cash donations are appreciated. Tax receipts for donations over $20 will be issued.  

All proceeds from this sale go to the Stephen Lewis Foundation’s Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign helping African grandmothers to raise their AIDS-orphaned grandchildren.
