Now in its second year, the Patterson Pledge program has awarded grants to over 900 libraries. This year, Patterson personally pledged $1.75 million in donations.
The amazing outpouring from schools combined with the continued generosity of James Patterson helped us solidify a second year of grants to help more children have access to high-quality books and, ultimately, revive school libraries. (Publishers Weekly)
