By the end of 2024, we were able to raise over $5,500, which funded the distribution of more than 2,200 books to over 500 underprivileged children, families, and in-need youth organizations!

Due to the incredible impact that #Books4Babes had the last FIVE holiday seasons, we are SO EXCITED to keep the momentum of kindness & unconditional love going in 2025!

Storytelling is the greatest form of communication. Lessons are taught through stories and the inspiration of well-written books. Add pictures, colors, and even pop-up interactions, and watch how many children’s imaginations flourish!

For anyone who knows Alan & me well, you know that books hold a very special place in our hearts. They are one of the key tools by which we’ve become so educated and inspired as adults.

We are so blessed, but that’s only because of the incredible educational opportunities we both had growing up.

That’s why it’s our mission to raise $500 this year. We can do it!!!

This way, we can put inspiring books in the hands of twice as many young, underprivileged children & families this time.

It is our hope that with these funds, we can inject a much-needed inspiring source of HOPE & CARING into the lives of those less fortunate & hungry for inspiration.

Like last year, the books will be distributed in boxes to families, organizations, and schools with a personally handwritten note from Alan & me (see the YouTube Video above to see them!). Volunteers from all over have already asked to get involved - from hand-painting bookmarks to helping eco-distribute the books, and we couldn't be more excited to join forces this year with so many incredible human beings to maximize this fundraiser's impact.

We will be taking donations up until Dec 25th to ensure that we have the books purchased, wrapped, and distributed to schools and families before Christmas Eve.

Imagine being a child so used to going without unexpectedly finding a beautifully wrapped gift on Christmas morning.

If you’re reading this, it would mean the world to us if you'd contribute. This initiative is meant to wrap our underprivileged youth in love & warmth on Christmas.

If these kids learn through experience that strangers care about them and their future, who knows what that’ll spark!!

Please join us in making a real difference this holiday season. Big or small, every little bit counts. Thank you!!!

With love & gratitude,

Emilia & Alan
