HAMPTON ROADS, Va. - Since the “If You Give A Child A Book” campaign began in 2016, Scripps Howard Foundation and employees Scripps, WTKR’s parent company, have donated more than 352,000 new books to children facing poverty in their communities.

Liz Carter, President and CEO of the Scripps Howard Foundation, talks with us from Cincinnati about this year’s campaign and why now, more than ever, children need books in their homes.
