Books for Kids Who Need Them Most | Colorado Springs News

from Colorado Springs News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

For ten years, the Scripps Howard Fund’s “If You Give a Child a Book” campaign has been turning kids’ dreams into reality—one free book at a time. Through partnerships with schools and Scholastic, children in underserved communities pick their own books to keep, building home libraries that fuel reading success. With millions still struggling to read at grade level, this program gives kids ownership over their stories, sparking joy and lifelong love of reading. Right now, six Colorado elementary schools are benefiting—and your $12 donation can buy two books… or four, thanks to a matching gift drive through September 9th. Since 2016, they’ve distributed two million books—and every child’s smile proves it’s magic. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
