NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Thank you for all the donations to this year's If You Give a Child a Book Campaign. As a result of your generosity, we exceeded our goals and received $117,990. That's enough to purchase nearly 20,000 books for Middle Tennessee children.
The Nashville Predators matched $35,000 of the donations, and from all of you in the community, we received over $54,000. Other matching funds from The Scripps Howard Foundation helped reach our $117,990 total.
We will be going to different schools and doing book drives all across the community throughout the school year, like these this past year.
