Daphne’s Headcovers Make Great Father’s Day Gifts

June 18th, 2009 by Jane K. · 1 Comment · Books & Reading, Philanthropy

Daphne’s Headcovers, an online golf club covers retailer, offers the perfect gifts for Father’s Day! Thanks to their generous support, any headcover you purchase will generate a 10% donation to First Book. We recently sat down with Daphne’s Headcovers Founder, Jane Spicer, and she explained her reasons for partnering with us. Read her story below and make sure to visit Daphne’s Headcovers to view the wide selection of golf headcovers that also support First Book!

As far back as I can remember, my home and my grandparents homes have been filled with stacks of well worn & beloved books. My grandparents were voracious readers and we spent many happy hours sitting in their garden reading together. My parents fostered my love for reading with weekly trips to the library. When I was in college I would receive packages from my mom and grandmother of well worn paperbacks with loving notes of “I read this, loved it and knew you would too, call me when you’ve read it.”

Now with two children of our own, my husband and I get to share the joy of reading. We grant them Carte’ Blanche on two things; toothbrushes and books. Teaching my children to read has been one of my proudest accomplishments and greatest joys.

When we learned of First Book and their mission, my family and I knew that we wanted to help. I am thrilled and delighted to provide a portion of proceeds to First Book on all golf club covers that are purchased through this link.
