Once upon a time—in a land not too far away—was a kingdom with many large castles and neon lights (all on a couple miles of prime realty). People from across the world came to visit the kingdom, which had all of the luxuries any visitor could desire (no matter how exuberant). Despite all of these extravagant luxuries, there were still children in the land who didn’t have access to books. They were considered at-risk and low-income, and they were in desperate need of help. Then came Spread the Word Nevada (I’m sure on a white horse), and 2.6 million books later, we have a story to tell.
Here at PiP, we want to spread the word about Spread the Word Nevada—and it’s quite the story to share. With 2.6 million books donated and 343,000 children served throughout the valley, there’s plenty of good news to share. They offer students books to take home in order to create a home library; host breakfast events where books are given and the importance of reading is taught to children and their families; and provide a tutoring program that ensures these kids not only have books…they can read them too.
With April 25th and Nevada’s Big Give getting closer and closer, now is a great time to join this story. Join a chapter of growth for this exciting group. You can learn more about them through their website, and you can support them through their donation page.
And don’t forget, spread the word about Spread the Word Nevada: this is a tale you’ll want to tell.
