The Dictionary Project

Description

Excerpted from the website:

T he idea for the Dictionary Project began in 1992 when Annie Plummer of Savannah, Georgia gave 50 dictionaries to children who attended a school close to her home. She didn’t stop there. In her lifetime she raised the money to buy 17,000 dictionaries for children in Savannah, Georgia. Annie Plummer died December 23, 1999, but her dream did not die with her. She left an idea that has developed into The Dictionary Project, a nonprofit organization. Many people have implemented The Dictionary Project who have never heard of her. Since her death, over 1.25 million children have received dictionaries because thousands of people saw the same need in communities all over the United States. Arno French formed a 501 (c ) (3) nonprofit Association in 1995, along with a Board of Directors. The Dictionary Project’s original board members are still serving, they include Gregg Meyers and Barbara Massey.
