Three Marlton Middle School (MMS) seventh-graders, from left, Ethan Elwell, Amanda Elwell, and Alicia Phillps, read to three- and four-year-old children at Teddy Bear Academy (TBA), after presenting the organization with books worth $200, raised from funds collected at MMS' fall and spring book fairs through the Scholastic All For Books Program. Scholastic matched all money raised and will donate books to kids in need as well. Nancy Elwell, top left, MMS Book Fair Co-Chair along with Kimberly Phillips (not pictured here), said, "We chose TBA to receive our extra funds from the book fairs because we wanted to keep it in the community, and we knew that the facility is brand new and might need some help." Leah Perlmutter, far right, Evesham Child Care Director, said, "Being a new center, these books really, really helped us. Books can be expensive, so we really appreciate it." The women pose with students from MMS and TBA.
