Back the Blue with a Book or Two

Clarksville, TN – My name is Brittany Glynn and I am a Publisher’s Representative with EDC Publishing based in Clarksville, TN.

EDC is the home of Usborne Books, 2014’s IPG Children’s Publisher of the year, and Kane-Miller books, an award-winning publisher out of California, and both are recognized as a premier supplier of educational tools and books by schools and libraries all of over the US.

From now through Thursday, July 28th, we are kicking off our Summer Charity Book Drive to help the local police department. Our Clarksville Police officers have currently faced a lot of hardships and we want to show our support to the police officers while helping out children in crisis.

Police often come in contact with children in need or children who have faced hardships. We want you to “Back the Blue with a Book or Two.”

This gives our police officers books and stuffed animals at a time of need to help soothe and distract children during emergency situations.

Research shows that the children who have pieces of literature in their homes will make significant strides and perform better on tests than those that are not as fortunate.

These kids need our help. They need good books to call their own and to be taught the value of reading. There is no better way to encourage that than by ensuring that they have access to quality books.

Our goal is to raise over $1,000 in donations in this week period and we need your help. Our parent company has agreed to match our donations by 50%, so with our $1,000 and their match of $500.00, we can purchase almost $1,500 in books to give to these children!

Your donation will help buy books and stuffed animals for these children in need as well as help support our local police! Can you please donate to our cause? Of course, the more you can donate, the more books we can purchase in your name, so give generously!

So donate today at youcaring.

Thank you for supporting our mission to increase literacy in Clarksville,TN.
