And thank you for joining us in this celebration of teaching and the joy of learning.Subscribe in iTunesDonate to the Book Love FoundationEpisode 3 Show NotesYou can learn more about the Book Love Foundation at booklovefoundation.org, where you can also make a donation. 100% of the money you give to the Book Love Foundation puts books into classrooms. Applications were due on March 1, and this year we received 140 from across the United States and Canada. I've only just begun reading them and sorting them for my board members, but I already know we haven't raised enough money to fund all of the deserving teachers who have applied. Can you help us reach potential donors? Send a link to our podcasts to people you know and encourage them to help us with this mission. Help us bring the joy of reading to more teenagers. Help us create a love of reading in every school.
