Project Peace: Placing a Book in Every Child’s Hands
1000 copies from the first printing of Chepecho and Her Clippity Flappity Floppity Friends are being given to children affected by war and refugees through Project Peace. In addition, proceeds from the sale of Chepecho and Her Clippity Flappity Floppity Friends will go to support Project Peace. The book will be translated into other languages, printed and then donated to children affected by war.
Vision: Placing a book in every child’s hands
A book is a symbol of love, peace, and giving, it’s a letter to the young and the old. From there, an idea was born.
Our mission is to provide free books to children who have been affected by war. We wish to provide children with a sense of hope through these books.
