Why is this important?

Reading is a crucial skill for children, and the earlier they start with adults reading to them, the easier of a time they’ll have learning and building those critical thinking skills. And by donating children’s books to Goldbergs’ book drive, you’re ensuring that ALL kids will have access to good books to read!
Bradley Saxe, CO-CEO of Goldbergs Group says,
Reading is such a vital skill across ages, and we are delighted to help encourage and develop it for our
youngest audiences. Books open up a world of opportunities for children to explore and help create lasting,
precious memories when shared with loved ones… Reach Out & Read Georgia is a very special cause for Goldbergs, and we are proud to continue supporting their important work for our community
Reach Out and Read Georgia has big goals, and Goldbergs is helping them reach those targets. Amy Erickson, Executive Director of Reach Out and Read Georgia says,
We are excited to partner with Goldbergs Fine Foods once again and continue to nourish healthy minds and bodies through books. Our partnership with Goldbergs enables us to heighten awareness across Georgia about the vital role corporate philanthropy can play in advancing our mission of reaching 50% of Georgia’s young children by 2030… We encourage our area neighbors to join us in making a difference one book at a time.
