Giving Tuesday: Just a few dollars can provide a brand-new book to a child in need


(WTSP)

Every $10 donated to Reach Out and Read for Giving Tuesday will provide a copy of the award-winning book “Jabari Tries” to kids in need during pediatric well-visits.

Reach Out and Read says it is aiming to raise $40,000 on Giving Tuesday to give 4,000 children across the country new books. Part of the nonprofit’s mission is to “foster childhood development by encouraging parents to read aloud to their young children to promote healthy early relationships.” 

From now through Dec. 15, every $10 donated to Reach Out and Read for Giving Tuesday will provide a copy of the award-winning book “Jabari Tries” to kids in need during pediatric well-visits.
