(Update: The Read for my School Campaign has already met its goal and is now closed. You can still read books online and choose a different campaign to give books to another organization. 2/22/12)
Starting this Valentine’s Day, continuing through March 14, you and the children in your life will have the chance to read and give to your public elementary school!
Altogether, We Give Books is making 150,000 books available to U.S. schools, so get ready to read! Read for My School will last until we’ve given all these books to public schools nationwide.
Earning free books for your school is fun and easy!
1. Enter your school name on the campaign sign-up form so that we can track the number of books that your school earns. If you’re already a member of We Give Books, please click the orange “Support This Campaign” button to enter your school.
2. Choose a great children’s book and read! 167 e-books are provided at wegivebooks.org. Click “Give a Book” at the end of the story to be counted toward your school’s reading total.
3. Share this campaign: Encourage friends and family members to participate and earn even more books for your school! Each school must have 50 or more books read on its behalf during Read for My School to be eligible to earn up to 500 free books for the school library, donated by We Give Books!
