An idea to run by all my fellow mooters:
Not lots of time to spare in my own life, but I've thought it might be nice to find a way to arrange regular (weekly? maybe that's not enough?) visits to a pediatrics ward of a local hospital in order to read "The Hobbit" to the kids - on e or two chapters at a time. Especially if there's an onology section... or again, a regular oncology ward (any / all ages) - maybe even a nursing home...???
Then I thought: Is there a way to get hundreds, even thousands of volunteers to do likewise? Maybe even a coordinated effort - gearing up to begin on a particular date?
Thoughts in response?
