Support Baskids

The mission of The BasKIDS Project is to grow a generation of readers by providing reading materials, promoting literacy and encouraging positive social engagement in our community. 

We hope to curve the achievement gap for low-income youth through providing reading materials for the home. We collect donations from our community and create Baskids especially crafted for children, and donate them to shelters, hospitals and underfunded educational programs in the D.C., Maryland and Virginia area. We give the themed baskets filled with books and educational materials to encourage reading activity outside of school. 

We believe that leadership starts with knowledge, and the best way to gain knowledge is to READ. We invest in our community so that we can grow a generation of readers.
