Why should Valentine’s only be for our beloved?

Why not give gifts that give more?

Valentine’s Day is a great reminder of the importance of sharing love with others, including children who need it most.

In celebration of February 14th Valentine’s Day and International Book Giving Day, here is a creative way to give love away and fill your own heart in return and carry a lasting impact as well.

When you donate to BTF in honor of someone you love, your honoree will receive an email including your personal message from BTF and a rural school will receive a BTF Books4Kids Set for your act of kindness.

Love is happiness.

Love is excitement.

Love is liveliness.

Love is the connection of people’s hearts.

Love is life.

Love is embracing all children. Making the world a better place to live and working together to touch their small souls.

So how can we make our love immortal, pass it on from generation to generation, and have it used as a tool to improve lives?

Join our efforts to support the education of children with books for Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day is more than just gifts for your Valentine.

Books…

The word book often warms people’s hearts. Between the two covers, there is another completely different world, and diving into that world to experience it can make almost anyone happy. With children, you can see that their happiness is noticeably greater. Children enjoy reading and without realizing it, they choose their best friends and teachers.

Let’s make this February 14th Valentine’s Day a special one where a child’s face will light up as a book is gifted to them.

Love grows when we share.

Spread a love of books on Valentine’s Day
