Skipping Stones to Donate Books for Low-income Schools and Libraries
Are you working with students from low-income families or communities of color？Are you in a school or library that needs more books？We have many books that we wish to donate to schools and public libraries serving low-income students or communities of color.We have nature books as well as books on cultural awareness and diversity.In terms of ages or reader-ship levels，we have novels for teenagers，chapter books，picture books，and a few reference books.
Skipping Stones invites you to write to us about students you serve，as well as your needs and wants in terms of books.We want to donate these books to your public school or library but we request that you cover the shipping costs.We think 50 or100 will adequately cover the shipping of about 50 to 100 books，respectively.＄200 will bring you four big boxes of about 200 to 250 books.This is just an estimate.We are happy to work with you.
Please note that we are NOT able to fulfill donation requests from overseas schools or libraries because of the high cost of airmail postage.Within the USA，we can use the cheaper MEDIA MAIL or LIBRARY RATE.Send your requests to info@skippingstones.jye.ai or by snail mail to：

2．Life on the street is a constant struggle for homeless people.In extreme weather conditions，that struggle becomes even more difficult.Recently，homeless people across Chicago faced freezing to death if they couldn't find shelter for the night.
Thankfully，one local woman refused to let that happen.On January 30，34-year-old Candice Payne，a local managing broker，was lucky enough to have shelter from the dangerous conditions."It was -20℃，and I knew they were going to be sleeping on ice and I had to do something，"said Payne.Payne started brainstorming different ways she could possibly help.Finally，she decided to see if there were any rooms available at local inns and hotels that she could get to help those stuck on the street.
For Payne，her mission was personal.According to Payne，her husband，Carlos Callahan，had lived on the street at one point in his life.Based on his experience，Payne knew that the homeless people still living on the street desperately needed help and she wanted to step up.
However，when Payne explained what she was trying to do，many of the local hotels refused to allow her to pay for the rooms as they didn't want homeless people to stay in their rooms."No one wanted them，but one hotel，the Amber Inn，was nice enough to allow me to buy the rooms，"said Payne.
Payne's selfless act made news across the country.However，she insisted she had never done it for attention."I am a regular person，"said Payne，who spent thousands of dollars of her own money to help complete strangers."It all sounded like a rich person did this，but I'm just a little black girl from the South Side."
