We’re on a mission to bring the joy of reading directly into homes, schools, and communities across Maryland and Philadelphia—and we need your help. Click HERE to donate today.
Your gift will help us:
🔹 Provide STEM exposure to children through our partnership with Drone Cadets
🔹 Distribute thousands of brand-new books to children in book deserts in Maryland, Philadelphia, and Africa
🔹 Host inspiring read aloud sessions with authors in elementary schools throughout the academic year
These funds make real, last impact: from placing culturally relevant books in children’s hand to creating safe spaces where families father to learn, connect, and grow together through stories.
