Join the student volunteers of DAYLO (Diversity Awareness Youth Literacy Organization) for a special bonus holiday Teddy Bear Picnic read-aloud from 1 to 3 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 21, at the Beaufort County Main Library at 311 Scott Street.
In collaboration with the nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center, high school and college student volunteers from the Beaufort-based chapters of DAYLO will read from diverse, inclusive picture books to children and their families — including a special selection of some of DAYLO’s favorite holiday books. Cozy blankets and a plethora of stuffed animals make a welcoming environment in this free community literacy program.
DAYLO is a student-led diversity themed book club and community service group founded at Beaufort High School and now with chapters across South Carolina. Learn more at https://linktr.ee/DAYLOBFT.
