We have partnered with the East Bay Children's Book Project and created a "Book A Month" club providing books for the inmates' children of our Mothers Behind Bars: The Parent Puzzle program. Please support with your generous donation for mailing cost by clicking on the PayPal button below. The books are free, however they are shipped from Oakland, CA to us, and we mail to our 100 club members.
The mission for East Bay Children's Book Project is:
"East Bay Children's Book Project helps build literacy by putting books into the hands of children who have little or no access to them. Working through individuals and organizations who help children in need." |
