MIDLAND, TEXAS — Paige Walker drives by St. Ann’s school on her way to work at Midland Memorial Hospital almost every day. But there was one thing she kept noticing recently—the book fair.

“I continued to see the sign and remembered how exciting the book fair was to me as a child and how my mother sometimes wouldn’t have money to send with me,” she shared with CBS 7.

She decided to do something about it for the kids at the school. It only took a few minutes from her lunch break.

“I went over to St. Ann’s and spoke with those children about how important reading is,” Paige said. She purchased books for a few of the school children.

She never expected the school would recognize her efforts. “God bless you Paige” was displayed on the school’s billboard.

“Hopefully they would remember this day and be able to do the same for other children because educating our future generation is very important because they will become our leaders one day.”
