First Book- North Alabama Donations


First Book provides new books to children in need, addressing one of the most important factors affecting literacy - access to books. An innovative leader in social enterprise, each year First Book distributes millions of free and low-cost books to disadvantaged children and the programs that serve them.
Formed April 27, 2010, First Book-North Alabama is committed to making a difference in the lives of children right here in the Tennessee Valley.  To show our appreciation for their commitment we have donated select printing services. Check out these adorable folded stationery cards. Mecca Musick, from FBNA, requested cards that looked like books! What do you think? These were printed on 110 lb Linen Cardstock. 

What else does FBNA need? Bookmarks of course! Their main focus is books so the obvious paper choice for a card full of information is a bookmark! 

Their goal in 2011 is to put 30,000 new books in the hands of children in North Alabama. You can help: all it takes is $2.00 to buy a book.
Give a book - make a difference. Make an online donation.
First Book-North Alabama is made up of volunteers from throughout the community. We are always looking for passionate volunteers who want to make a difference in children's lives. If you are interested in volunteering with First Book-North Alabama, email us at northalabama@firstbook.org.
