Scholastic is making the donations available through a Book Grant process where those schools and libraries can apply and obtain books based on their specific needs.
From Richard Robinson, President and CEO of Scholastic: “The educators, parents, and caregivers, who are helping children in our hard hit communities throughout the region, are true heroes. All of us at Scholastic are committed to getting these books, lessons plans and other learning materials into the affected communities as soon as possible in the hope that we can provide support for our young people as they return to schools that need extra resources.”
You can make a donation to K.I.D.S. – Kids in Distressed Situations to help donate even more books.
