Join our efforts to increase literacy equity and give youth the joy of reading and the power of words on a page!
At Pages for Young Ages, we believe every child deserves the joy of reading. We are a Bay Area youth-based organization committed to fostering a love of books and closing the literacy gap for children in under-resourced families and communities. Through projects like our book drives and "Make a Book Come True" campaign, we work to empower the next generation with the gift of reading.
PLEASE DONATE BY 12/8 - THANK YOU!
This holiday season 2025, help share the joy of reading!
Pages for Young Ages is working to make sure every kid at the Fiesta Gardens Boys & Girls Club in San Mateo receives a brand-new book to call their own. The Club provides after-school enrichment and support for local kids from low-income families — and we’d love your help to make their holidays a little brighter!
🎁 Click here to buy a book for a child by 12/8. No need to purchase gift wrapping. We’ll wrap it for you and deliver it to the Club on 12/11 in time for their holiday party! Thank you! Stay up to date on our campaign. Connect with us at www.instagram.com/pagesforyoungages/
Pages for Young Ages is partnering with McKinley Elementary and Burlingame Parks & Recreation to host a book drive for the Children’s Book Project throughout October.
The Children’s Book Project provides books to children (ages 0–18) across San Francisco and other counties who need them for “literacy, learning, and life.”
If you would like to donate new or like-new books, please drop them off at McKinley Elementary or Burlingame Community Center. If you are donating a large volume of books and would like to arrange a pickup, please email info@pagesforyoungages.org.
The Children’s Book Project is especially in need of:
📖 Books in Spanish (all ages)
✨ Books featuring characters of color (all ages)
🧸 Board books
🔤 Beginning readers
📚 Chapter books
🎨 Graphic novels
