Donation drive set to support youth literacy

| | Comments (0)
DD's Discounts will host the second annual in-store donation drive in support of youth literacy efforts during the back-to-school season.

DD's Discounts is partnering with the award-winning nonprofit organization First Book to place brand-new books into the hands of children who need them most.
Through Sept. 7, DD's Discounts customers can make a donation at 57 store locations in California, Texas, Florida, Nevada and Arizona.

A $2 donation, which can be made at store registers, will provide a brand-new book to a child in the local community. DD's Discounts will match donations, up to $25,000. 
All funds raised will directly support youth literacy efforts in the surrounding areas of DD's Discounts stores.

First Book's relationships with youth education programs throughout the U.S. help ensure that the funds raised in each store support the local community and provide wonderful new books to children in need.
