Danielle's 35th Birthday Book Drive

This week I will celebrate my 35th birthday.  I have been thinking about how I wanted to mark the occasion and I have decided that I would like to use my day to help others.  About a year ago I discovered an organization that combines three areas close to my heart, Children’s Books, Preschool Education and Preschool Children.

10BH is a home tutoring nonprofit that positions high poverty preschoolers and their families to enter kindergarten above grade level. It is not enough to be “at” grade level in high poverty school communities. Children in these communities enter kindergarten more behind, fail more, and fall into poverty as adults more than any other student group. High poverty students must be “above” grade level to compete in the real world. Shockingly, 24% of the nation’s students are high poverty. 

Established in 2012, the program provides weekly home tutoring lessons year round to high poverty preschoolers and their parents. Preschoolers are enrolled for two years from when they are 3 years old until they enter kindergarten. Children are given many educational materials, such as a bookcase, books, and writing materials so that they can own and have regular access to learning opportunities in their daily lives.

My goal for my 35th birthday is a really big one but I am hoping that you all can help me!

I want to donate 10 books to 35 children aka collect 350 books!

I will be using my connection with Usborne Books to make this happen. (All commission will also be donated!) Below I have suggested some great books (Joseph & Finley helped choose) that are appropriate for the preschool age group.  If you would prefer to just donate money to the cause, I have also started a gofundme!

Thanks to you all in advance for helping me make a difference in a few peoples lives!

XOXO,
Danielle
