As we near the close of the year, SitStayRead looks back warmly at our amazing book drive partners over the past year. We have been fortunate to work with amazing companies, small local businesses, and their driven, generous, and passionate employees to purchase, pack, and distribute books to children in the communities and schools we proudly serve.
The joy that is sparked by the gift of a good book and the help to foster increased literacy in Chicago youth is priceless.
Our most sincere thanks to our local bookstore partners on at Women and Children First and Pilsen Community Books.
Special thanks also to the incredible people at Crate & Barrel, KPMG, Motorola, and Synergy Creative for their generous donations of not only the funds to purchase books, but their time to join us at Read-A-Palooza 2024, pack book bags for our end of program celebrations, do special guest readings, and continue fostering connections with our local communities.
