Book Donation Program

The author has offered a children's  book donation program since she became an author in 2013.  That program has resulted in her books being available to children in public school systems such as Detroit, Indianapolis, and Fort Wayne as well as many public library systems.  Books were donated internationally to Madina Village School which is a rural primary school in Sierra Leone, West Africa serving 330 students. The school was founded by Francis Mustapha, who was born in the village of Madina.
