Clarksville, TN – For the eighth consecutive Halloween, the Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi (PKP) at Austin Peay State University is collecting new and gently used children’s books for its Candy for the Mind project.
Through this project, PKP distributed more than 1,500 books to community children during last year’s G.H.O.S.T.
