First Book Redux

 I've been behind-hand in reminding you about my favorite cause, First Book. With the administration threatening to shut down the department of Eduction, First Book's mission becomes even more vital. And what's the mission?

To put books into the hands of kids who can't afford them.

I know there are a lot of things poor kids need: food, shelter, safety, love. Having grown up in the projects, I have more than a passing acquaintance with those needs. But from an early age, reading was as important to me as all of those. If it's important to you, they would love your support. 

You need more information? Sure. There's a permanent link in my sidebar, or you can just click on the Firstbook link now to go to their site. Times are tough, and if you have a giving heart, I know you have to choose wisely. I hope you'll consider First Book.
