Our Partners

We work with committed corporations and foundations, visionary nonprofits and publishers and creative authors and illustrators. Individual champions like you make the difference in educational equity.

We are deeply grateful for the support of our generous partners and invite collaboration with other outstanding organizations that care about making a difference on behalf of kids and educators.

I know First Book’s model and I’ve seen the way it delivers powerful results to support its important mission. This is a social enterprise that is well positioned to take the power of its proven model to a global scale.

— John B. Veihmeyer, retired chairman | KPMG International
