On April 6th, 2003, from 9am-5pm, a select group of 50 volunteers will be building a children's reading garden at the Riggs Institute Learning and Literacy Center in Beaverton, a division of the Portland, Oregon metro area. This event is being held in cooperation with Sean Astin, who intends to attend the event personally, and all additional proceeds will go to benefit Reading is Fundamental.

BitofEarth.net is still taking applications for volunteers, and will be doing so through midnight, March 22nd, Pacific Standard Time. For more information about Project Elanor, including how to volunteer or otherwise support our endeavor, please visit our website

More information about the Riggs Institue and their exciting literacy program will be available soon. The most up-to-date information can always be found by visiting our news page
