Tuesday, May 14, 2024 11:09PMTwo thousand brand-new books are on their way to children in need in Philadelphia.
"It will motivate them to read. It just feels so good to be able to do this," says Bernie Prazenica, President and General Manager of WPVI. "Sadly only about 2/3 of our children are on grade level by the time they hit 4th grade, and we know that reading is the gateway skill to everything else," said Jenny Bogoni of Read By 4th.
"To be able to get brand new books is priceless to children who are growing up without any," says Anne Keenan, the executive director of Philly Book Bank.
