Support Readers & Writers Rock! and provide free new books in conjunction with multicultural author visits to underserved children throughout Los Angeles County.
Thanks to the generosity of individual donors like you, plus book donations from publishers and authors, we were able to give 3,827 books to students at 31 low income underserved schools during the 2022-2023 school year.
Please donate to Readers & Writers Rock! or sponsor a school or classroom to help us reach even more students during the upcoming school year.
Children’s Book World is committed to challenging inequity and providing books and author experiences to underserved children. Every dollar you donate will go towards getting a new book into a child’s hands and home.
Readers & Writers Rock! strives to bring multicultural author visits to schools with underserved children, with each child attending receiving a copy of the author’s book. We hear repeatedly from children and their teachers that the students have never met an author before, let alone an author that “looks like them” and how meaningful it is. We get feedback from teachers and principals at the schools telling us how these author visits motivate their students to read and write and how strong the impact of these positive role models is for their students. For some students, the book they receive will be the first they’ve ever owned.
We are looking for individuals and organizations to help us get as many books as possible to underserved children for stellar author events!
Donations of all amounts will be greatly appreciated.
