On October 7, 2020, Kim Gregory delivered 86 books donated by Virge Cornelius to Vardaman to an after school program in Vardaman, MS, held in the Catholic Charities building. The program serves children from PK-4 through 3rd grades, about 50% of which are minorities. As many as 45 children participate in the program under normal circumstances, but only 11 children are allowed since COVID-19 precedures. Vardaman is about an hour south of Oxford, MS.
