I love 10 Books a Home!
Don protégé
I’m turning 25 this year in June and for my birthday I wanted to celebrate a little differently. Rather than ringing in my quarter-of-a-century by spending money on a trip to Vegas (the original plan) I would like to ask my friends, family, and anyone who is willing, to help raise some money for my favorite non-profit – 10 Books a Home (10BH).
Since first joining 10BH as a Role Model in March 2015 I have fallen more in love with the organization! Every Tuesday afternoon I get the pleasure of hanging out with my four-year old Learner, teaching her the alphabet, numbers, about culture, colors and so much more. I watch her light up as she learns through games that she enjoys and witness firsthand the impact 10BH has, not just on the development of my little girl, but her family as well.
To get more involved I provided some marketing help (social media for the win :)) and then in April 2016 I joined the Board of Directors as Secretary. It’s been almost a year in this role and I couldn’t be more excited for what we have achieved and what’s to come. Founder Paul Thiebaut III, an East Palo Alto native, has a vision that I truly believe will change the way children learn that reaches beyond individual families to entire communities – and all of this is already in motion!
What I love about 10BH is that our volunteers are showing children how to fall in love with learning and setting them up for success from the get-go – giving the future, our youth, a head start. Furthermore, families share what they have learned and through this we are enabling entire communities to pull themselves out of poverty.

I will be putting in $380 of my own money towards this cause (the equivalent of a round-trip to Vegas and tickets to a show) and would greatly appreciate a donation of any amount to support. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and for your help – let’s change the world! :)
Donation information:
> $40 funds one month of lessons
> $100 funds one month of lessons and a home library
> $500 funds one year of lessons
Oh and for those of you willing/able to donate $100 or more you’ll be getting a free 10BH shirt!
My aim is to have at least $2,000 raised by June 4 (my birthday) which will be enough to fund 4 new Learners for a year!
Thank you <3
