Donation Story: Honoring His Roots

New York’s own Jeremy Thompson has pledged more than 500 Hoodiebooks to the students of his old middle school in Newark, NJ.

Jeremy was encouraged by teachers from an early age to develop his body and his mind. And he was fortunate to come from a family that prioritized reading as well as extracurricular achievement.

“I wanted to share some of the wisdom and support that I received when I was young, and Hoodiebooks is the perfect way to do that,” said Jeremy.
