An Initiative from Krispy Kreme Called “Buku untuk Sahabat” Aims to Give Underprivileged Kids Access to Books
As part of “Books for Friends” project, which began in December 2022, Krispy Kreme has donated 540 books through three non-profit foundations. Giving access to books to underprivileged children is one little action Krispy Kreme can take to convey their concern for the children’s well-being.
“Families, and kids in particular, love Krispy Kreme. With this background, we feel it necessary to bring joy to the kids in need by giving them books they may use to improve their education. Krispy Kreme is launching this program for the first time, and it will undoubtedly continue in the years to come,” said Avilia, Brand Manager of Krispy Kreme.
Krispy Kreme will donate one book for every purchase of ten dozens of Original Glazed. From 12th December 2022 to 12th January 2023, Krispy Kreme was able to gather 540 books, which were then donated to the ISCO Foundation, Sahabat Anak Foundation, and Taman Bacaan Masyarakat Lentera Pustaka.
“Reading to kids may help them in so many ways, including expanding their vocabulary, improving their logical reasoning abilities, developing their imagination and creativity, and many more. We at TBM and the other two foundations work to give underprivileged kids access to reading so they may have the same education as other kids, even though they may not have as much access to it compared to other children. We are very delighted about Krispy Kreme since they share our mission for enriching children’s education through books,” said Syarif Yunus, founder of Taman Bacaan Masyarakat Lentera Pustaka.
