A Mother's Day Gift from Behind the Book

Remember when your mom read you a story before she tucked you in at night?

This Mother's Day, honor that tradition by making a donation to Behind the Book in her name.
Your gift of $35 or more will help us bring books and authors into high need schools in NYC.

As part of your donation, your mother or another important woman in your life will receive a Behind the Book Mother's Day card thanking her for the gift made in her name and a dedication page on our website with a special message from you.

This Mother's Day, give a different kind of gift- give the gift of literacy.

Then email info@behindthebook.org with a (JPEG) picture, message, and your choice of background color and color of text for your mother's dedication page. 

A donation of $35 will provide books for 2 children, $75 will provide books for 5 children, and
$100 will provide books for a classroom library.

Starting donation is $35
