Kids' books, games sought

The Pitt Volunteer Pool is sponsoring two drives to aid needy school-age children.

For after-school programs in the local area, donation are needed for age-appropriate games such as Junior Scrabble, Twister, Sorry, Monopoly, Clue, Uno, Yahtze, Pictionary Jr. and checkers, as well as playing cards, lacing beads, Lego sets and math-skill games. The deadline for donations is May 1.

The Volunteer Pool also is soliciting donations of books (English and Spanish), coloring books, crayons, flat puzzles, paper dolls, art kits, pencils and school supplies as part of a Children Incorporated drive to benefit needy children in the United States and Central America. The deadline for this effort is May 29.

All donations should be sent to Gwen Watkins, 710 Alumni Hall. For more information, contact Watkins at 412/624-7702.
