Local company Wipro gifted thousands of books to Bryant Elementary and, along with nonprofit First Book, has distributions planned in other communities nationwide.

ABC7 and Disney are proud partners with the nonprofit First Book for our "Magic of Storytelling" literacy campaign each year.

As part of this city-wide project to provide every K-5 classroom in San Francisco with a library, ABC7 will also be donating 1,000 books to children in need through First Book.
