Book Drive in Honor of Lucas Paul

My name is Kari. My neice and her husband were the proud parents of a little boy named Lucas. He was a miracle and brought amazing joyand love to all who knew him. Sadly, he went to heaven at the age of 15 months old. It was a horrible tragedy that has left a huge cavern of emptiness to his family. Not a day goes by that we wish we could turn back time. I have thought long and hard about this and though it seems almost impossible I really wanted to do something extrodinary in honor of Lucas. 
In the spirit of giving this season I would like to ask my family and friends and friends of friends to consider giving to the Lucas Paul Book Drive. Lucas's favorite book was Animal Alphabet and he loved reading it with his mommy and daddy. Lucas's family would like to share the love of this book with other families.
We are asking for book donations but also for monetary donations. Our goal is 576 books (Lucas was born on Nov 24th and he would have been 24 months old this year.  The monetary goal is $2000.00 as each book is approx $8.00. My hope it that will help purchase 250 books. 
The books will be donated to Essentia Health System, Lakewood Health System and Children's Hospital for other children and families to enjoy.
This family means the world to me and this event will allow them to do something special for others in Lucas's name.
Thank you sooo much for your kindness.
