Giving kids in need the chance to read

As a kid there was not better escape for me than a book! All of the “Choose your own Adventures”, “Hardy Boys” and “Nancy Drew”, Beverly Cleary, Stephen King (yes!), V.C. Andrews, and Archie comics were some of my favorites! I’d spend a full weekend entrenched in these stories. This is why I feel so passionate about making sure all kids have books to spark their imaginations and have an escape of their own.

This is why for my birthday, on May 2nd, I'm fundraising for Page Ahead's A Taste for Reading benefit luncheon to help build home libraries for Washington kids who really need them. The pandemic has made it even harder for kids in communities of concentrated low income to access books and keep their reading skills up—but giving kids their own books at home, that they can read at any time, will make a difference!

Please join me at the luncheon on my birthday, May 2 (either in person at the Four Seasons Seattle or by watching online) or consider making a gift now. Together, we can give EVERY kid the chance to read!

Hope to see you!

Why $4900? It's my 49th Birthday!
