Donate books to Reach Out and Read
New books
The Reach Out and Read sites are always in great need of brand-new, appropriate board books for infants and toddlers (newborn, 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 24 and 30 months old). The coordinator of ROR at CHOP purchases the books the sites need at a significant discount, so we greatly appreciate monetary donations which make the greatest impact. Your generosity will allow the primary care pediatricians and nurse practitioners at CHOP’s 30 Reach Out and Read sites to provide at least 160,000 brand-new, appropriate books to young patients during their primary care well visits and use children’s books and shared reading to support parents and caregivers in fostering healthy relationships with their children.
With your monetary gift, we will purchase books such as:
