For years, I worked with a local battered women's shelter, and I remember that the kids didn't ask for toys or clothes...they wanted books. A book was something that fed their soul, their imagination, and their spirit. Books on Wings focuses on providing books to at-risk youths...books that help further their education, and open their minds to the possibilities that exist for them. The fact that these kids get to keep the books is a treasure that will remind them of how a simple gesture - receiving a book - can change lives.
