When the school year ends, so do many support systems kids in need rely on. Thankfully there are thousands of organizations working across the country to help kids in need during the summer months.
First Book is here to support all of them. We don’t just work with teachers; anyone working with kids in need can sign up to get books from First Book!
From health clinics to summer camps, museums to daycare centers, we’ve got books and educational resources for any and all folks serving kids in need, ages zero to 18. First Book also supports programs serving children from military families and children with disabilities.
And there’s no better time to reach them than now – while kids are out of school and relying on their services more than ever.
Think about your community. Are there shelters, health clinics, faith-based programs, soup kitchens or other community-based programs that need educational resources? Encourage them to learn more and sign up at www.firstbook.org.

The finished product, an impressive sight of 1,000 backpacks, lined the stage at the closing session of the 2013 Convention and inspired pause. It was a moment filled with a sense of pride at the completed effort and collective impact Pi Beta Phi had on the local community.
