Did you have a favorite book as a kid?  Do you have fond memories of your mom or dad or grandparent reading you stories when you were young?  


Books! They transport us to another time and place, they foster dreams and feed imaginations.  They provide a foundation for future learning. Your donations will help put books into the hands of kids who might not have the resources to purchase their own. For a lot of the kids we serve, this is the very first book they have ever owned.   


I serve on the board of Book Drive For Kids.  Our goal is to provide free books to kids who might not otherwise have access to them.  In cooperation with targeted schools, we set up book fairs for kids to choose their very own book at no cost to them.  


Research shows that reading paper books leads to stronger academic performance compared to digital reading, with significant score differences on international tests like PISA. Reading on paper is associated with much higher achievement outcomes than digital reading.


Look at the smiles on the faces of the kids…can you see them showing their books to each other and hear them laughing with excitement?

Help us spread the joy of reading.
