Telephone Pioneers Of America have donated $750 dollars to Springfield Forward to fund the Tell Me Your Story program at Sumner Avenue School. Volunteers from Springfield Forward visit the school and assist students in creating their own books. Vocabulary, sentence structure and creative writing are among the skills enhanced by the year old program

Heard about the program and think it is wonderful! I guess the group Telephone Pioneers also think so, thus the donation. The kids look pretty happy too. Can this program be duplicated in other schools? How do we contact Springfield Forward?
