The Books for Kids Foundation, established in 1986, was a non-profit organization based in New York, NY, dedicated to promoting early literacy and providing access to books for children ages 0-5. Through their curated libraries and literacy programs, they aimed to bridge educational inequalities and ensure that all children had the opportunity to develop strong reading skills. With a focus on creating joyful and engaging reading experiences, their library specialists worked directly with children, parents, and educators to foster a love of learning and support early childhood development.
Over the course of their 30-year history, the Books for Kids Foundation distributed over 170,000 books to children and families in need, serving over 13,200 children through their libraries and literacy programs. Their mission was to give every child the chance to build a solid foundation in literacy, recognizing that early experiences and access to high-quality education are crucial for future success. By providing books, creating libraries, and conducting story time sessions, the Books for Kids Foundation aimed to empower children and promote a lifelong love of reading.
