Daphne's Headcovers supports First Book and literacy
efforts
Phoenix, Arizona - Daphne's Headcovers,
the original animal headcover company, announced their support
of First Book's literacy development efforts through online
sales of headcovers at Daphne's HeadCover Shop.
Jane Spicer, president of Daphne's
Headcovers, explained, "Reading books has always been an
significant part of my life and the lives of my family. The
thought of some children not having access to book or not being
able to read books is overwhelmingly heartbreaking to me and I'm
committed to helping the cause of First Book to get new books
into children's hands."
First Book provides new books to children
in need addressing one of the most important factors affecting
literacy - access to books. The inspiration for the organization
was born when Kyle Zimmer, a corporate lawyer by day and tutor
at an inner-city soup kitchen by night, discovered that the
children she tutored had no books to read.
She realized that there were millions of
potential readers, future workers, citizens and parents, who
were eager to love reading and learning, but were without the
tools to do so. Spurred to action, Kyle founded First Book to
provide new books and resources to the children who needed them
the most.
Zimmer explained, "Great stories, like a
great game of golf, only get better in the retelling. First Book
is thankful for the support of Daphne's Headcovers to bring
wonderful books and timeless stories to children in need -
delivering the power of reading into lives and transforming
futures with books."
First Book envisions a world where all
children have an enriched learning environment with new books
and educational resources of their own.
