Frantz Nursery:
Sowing The Seeds of Early Learning
What do farmers, funders, faith leaders and librarians all have in common? They are all champions for early learning! Frantz Nursery, Congregations Building Community (CBC), Stanislaus County Library and Stanislaus Community Foundation joined forces on October 2nd to promote early literacy in the field! Olga Cardenas from the County Library and Homero Mejia from CBC presented to 150 employees on the importance of reading to children and offered tips for how to incorporate more reading in the home. Stanislaus Community Foundation provided free Spanish children's books and employees registered for new library cards. Frantz Nursery staff also created a new 'tiny library' in the main office to ensure that employees have regular access to children's books on site. This type of cross-sector coordination is exactly what Stanislaus READS! is all about. Thank you Frantz Nursery for showing us how businesses can play such a powerful role in early learning!
