The teams working on the construction of the new Boys & Girls Club in Palmyra recently welcomed key members of their organizations for an on-site tour of the facility.

The tour gave attendees a chance to see the progress firsthand, walk through the developing spaces, and learn more about the work taking place as construction continues. It was an exciting glimpse at what was once a vision and what will soon serve children and families in Harrison County.

To keep up with the construction progress on the facility, visit hccfindiana.org/BGC-Palmyra-Progress.

Today, the Harrison County Community Foundation is recognizing Give Like Dolly Day. This day celebrates Dolly Parton's Imagination Library (DPIL) and those who help sustain HCCF's sponsorship of the program.

Since 2008, more than 335,000 books have been delivered to Harrison County children from birth to age five. Currently, 1,535 young readers in Harrison County receive a free book each month because of the continued generosity of donors and the community.

The Foundation provides ongoing support for the cost of distributing DPIL books through the Early Readers Fund. Donations to this fund are currently matched $2 for $1, doubling the impact and helping put books in the hands of Harrison County children.

Help HCCF and visit https://ow.ly/5ekp50ZFFq7 to donate.
