GUILDERLAND — For the fifth year, Farnsworth Middle School is once again collecting new children’s books for Project Cameron’s Story.

This is a not-for profit organization that collects books for families with a baby in the neonatal intensive care unit at more than a dozen hospitals throughout New York.

A new book in a plastic bag (to prevent germs) may be dropped off to any house office or reception area, or a form may be used to send in money with a selection or to order directly online using the codes given.
