Dennis and Craig Dulniak discuss Nana’s Books Foundation donation to books to Kindergarten class

Henry H. Houston Elementary School recently received a donation of nearly 700 books from Nana's Books Foundation, co-founded by Mt. Airy resident Craig Dulniak and his father Dennis Dulniak. 

Nana’s Books Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides grade-appropriate books on Alzheimer's, dementia, and other disabilities to public libraries and students in Title I schools. They selected Houston as one of five schools across the country to receive book donations this Spring.

"I am happy to have been able to relay my mom's love of books to Henry H. Houston Elementary School students," said Craig Dulniak. "The kindergartners we met were eager to share about their experiences with loved ones who have dementia or other disabilities. I hope that our presentation today, along with the books that they take home, will help them to better understand and include people with disabilities."

Since 2022, the Nana’s Books Foundation has been donating books to honor career librarian Nancy Dulniak, who died from early onset Alzheimer’s in 2021.
