"If You Give a Child a Book" is KSBY's annual fundraising drive to purchase new books for local students in Title I schools.

The number of books in a child's home is one of the greatest predictors of their success in school and beyond.

Last year, we raised enough money to provide books to kids at four Central Coast schools — Lillian Larsen, Oceano, Bonita, and Arellanes elementary schools.

This Wednesday, Sept. 4, the Scripps Howard Fund is matching up to $175,000 in community donations.

A donation of just $12 can help us purchase two books, but with the matching funds, your donation can go twice as far.
