Please read to the end to find out how you can help provide books to children in need. Both of my children have always loved to read and thankfully, we always had access to a great selection of books for them. But, not all children are as lucky and you can help change that.

Help Provide Books to Children in Need
November is National Family Literacy Month, and as we all know, there’s nothing quite like the imagination-inspiring power of books – storytime is a treasured pastime for all, but many children may not have the opportunity to experience the magic of books.
Enter online retailer zulily who’s teaming up with publisher Penguin Random House and nonprofit First Book, during this season of giving, to help provide books to children in need across the U.S:
When: Nov 1 – Dec 12, 2018
Where: zulily.com, zulily app and zulily social channels
What:
- Special sales events launched during the campaign will feature a curated selection of children’s books and each Penguin Random House book purchased labeled with the “BUY 1, GIVE 1” badge will trigger a new children’s book donation, up to 100,000 books, from Penguin Random House to First Book, a nonprofit social enterprise that provides new books and other essentials to children in need nationwide.
- Shoppers can visit zulily’s owned social channels to engage in a social call-to-action, through comments, likes or shares to also spark the “Give One” book donation from Penguin Random House to First Book.
When you’re buying your Christmas gifts this year, shopping the curated selection of children’s books on zulily is a great way to give back. Your purchase will trigger a new children’s book donation to help those who may not have access to books of their own.
To help efforts to provide children the gift of reading this holiday season visit zulily.com, and zulily’s social pages: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest.
