Big Apple Pizza Supports Literacy with “If You Give a Child a Book” Campaign
Big Apple Pizza in Fort Pierce, led by Scott Van Duzer, is actively contributing to the community by supporting literacy initiatives for children. The restaurant is involved in the “If You Give a Child a Book” campaign, which aims to provide books to children in low-income neighborhoods, particularly those in kindergarten through third grade. This campaign is a collaboration with the Scripps Howard Fund and focuses on the importance of early reading skills for children’s development .
Recently, community leaders gathered at Big Apple Pizza to promote this initiative, emphasizing the significance of access to books for young learners. The campaign has successfully raised over $11,000, allowing students to build their home libraries and take home free books.
This effort not only enhances literacy but also fosters a love for reading among children, helping to break the cycle of poverty and improve educational outcomes.
