OKR Free Book Festival
Support Literacy In Trenton, NJ!
Our Kids Read, in partnership with the Princeton University Class of 1979, is bringing a Free Book Festival to the 2024 Princeton Reunions!
As part of this year's 2024 Princeton Reunions, Our Kids Read is partnering with the Class of 1979 to bring a group of 5th graders from a local Trenton elementary school for a day of literacy and mentorship. The Class of '79 service event will feature events at Firestone Library, a campus tour, storytelling and, of course, FREE BOOKS for every student!

Key Partners
The Princeton University Class of 1979 and the Association of Princeton Graduate Alumni (APGA) are delighted to bring an Our Kids Read Free Book Festival back to Princeton Reunions for the second consecutive year (last year Our Kids Read partnered with the Class of 1998 to execute similar service event: https://vimeo.com/838100408).
There are two (2) ways to support, select one or the other (or both!):
to access the virtual book drive
Donate one or more books for children to take home with them during this event (it's also OK to donate multiple copies of a single book).
NOTE: During the checkout process please select the shipping address: Our Kids Read's Gift Registry Address. This ensures the books will be sent to our kids read headquarters in Columbia, MD. They will take the donated books to the school on the day of the festival.
to Donate
OKR is a 100% volunteer organization but we do pay contract musicians, storytellers and part-time staff. Please donate to support the cost of bringing the best event possible to the students we serve.
