Imagination sparks joy like nothing else in the world. We’ve all learned from a young age that reading is the best way to tune in to the endless possibilities of our minds. So, let’s share this gift of exploration and reading with our youth. It is time for Philadelphia to overcome insufficient reading levels and take on the young explorers who are ready to make positive changes within our city! Let us ignite a passion for knowledge while inspiring a lifelong love of reading amongst our local youth!
The time to celebrate our 6th Annual Children’s Book Drive is finally here! From March 11th-April 26th, join us in eradicating the city of Philadelphia’s book deserts. We are inspired by the 100th Anniversary of Children’s Book Week! With the theme being, “Read Now. Read Forever.”, we continue to encourage local youth to cherish the joy of reading, learning and growing.
