The Sue Jorgensen Library Foundation History
The Sue Jorgensen Library Foundation was created in 1996 to benefit libraries and advance the cause of childhood literacy in Wyoming. After making a significant contribution of books to the library of her children's elementary school, the foundation learned of a community that held an annual drive to raise enough money to give every first grade child a book to encourage early enthusiasm for reading. With the support of local teachers, administrators, and parents, the "Casper Cares, Casper Reads" project was born.

I. Sample Sets – We have had to substitute one new title in the menu of book choices for the children. We were having delivery issues with a book called “The Great Nursery Rhyme Disaster.” Rather than risk disappointing children and not being able to fulfill their choice we decided at the last minute to go with a book titled “Dinosaurs Love Underpants.” Read More
