What did you spend $10 on in 2007? Movie tickets, lattes, dry cleaning?

What can $10 do in 2008? Help put an end to illiteracy.

First Book is working tirelessly each day to resolve the illiteracy crisis by bringing beautiful, new books to the most economically disadvantaged children in communities nationwide. And we are making a difference , as Madison, a third-grader who received books from First Book, tells us: “Thank you for the awesome books. We lost all of ours in Hurricane Katrina. I love reading books. Books take me places where I haven’t been before.”

Get started on your 2008 good works early, and help us prove that everyone has the power to help end illiteracy in our lifetime. The Case Foundation, in partnership with Facebook, is challenging nonprofits to put social networking sites to charitable use. The cause that inspires the most donors wins an additional $50,000.

Join our cause and make a difference for a child in need. The challenge is going on now and runs until January 31.
