In 2008, more than 5,000 Books for Babies kits were distributed to newborns and their parents through a year-long partnership with Nordstrom, one of the nation’s leading fashion specialty retailers with 159 stores located in 28 states. The early childhood literacy kits were purchased by 20 organizations across the country that received matching grants through a $10,000 donation given in conjunction with the publication of Nordstrom’s first book, “Once Upon a Holiday the Moon Fell Out of the Sky.” The program was so successful that Nordstrom donated another $10,000 to continue the matching grants for 2009.
