SO GRATEFUL to partner with the amazing Norwalk-based non-profit Filling in The Blanks during their 2021 Holiday Backpack Drive to bring 2,000 COPIES of “Niyah Zuri and The Pharaoh’s Throne” to kids throughout Connecticut via 200 elementary schools! I signed every single copy personally to ensure each child understands their worth all my efforts.

“Filling in the Blanks fights childhood hunger by providing children in need with meals on the weekends.Filling in the Blanks was founded by mothers and community activists, Shawnee Knight and Tina Kramer, who created the nonprofit as a way to marry their loves of community, children, food and charity. In 2013, Knight and Kramer created Filling in the Blanks which has now expanded to include over 100 sites throughout Fairfield and Westchester Counties and has delivered over TWO MILLION-weekend meals to children in low-income households.” For more information about Filling in The Blanks visit www.fillingintheblanks.org
