A few months ago, our community suddenly lost a crucial member - Dr. Hindi Krinsky, mother of 5 beautiful children, inspiring educator, and a truly brilliant woman. Hindi was a faculty member, Curriculum Coordinator, at a local high school located in Nassau County, Long Island.
Hindi's husband Dovid Kanarfogel and I are working together to collect children’s books that are being donated to children’s organizations throughout the country including:

In addition, we have received hundreds of new books from publishers including: Penguin Random House, Scholastic, Hachette, Simon & Schuster and more which have allowed us to expand our donations into hospitals and other such organizations that would not accept used books due to potential germs.
Every book donated has a special dedication label which provides information about the project. Within 4 months, we've accomplished so much to continue Hindi's legacy with children throughout the country.
