"Who loves children’s books more than I do, well it’s Lisa. She shares her love of books and reading with my students at the Beethoven Elementary School. It’s her kindness that shines through and her willingness to want all children to love reading. Lisa brought books for our students, well over 1,000 books. I’ll never forget the smiles and excitement of the students choosing two books to take home. Our Kindness Projects were such a success with all the support we received from Storytime Crafts."

Our Mission
Promoting literacy and kindness
Storytime Crafts, Inc is a registered 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit organization with a grassroots literacy initiative dedicated to creating diverse book-rich environments for children that promotes the joy of reading.
Storytime Crafts was founded with the goal of uniting communities to promote inclusive childhood literacy opportunities. We are dedicated to amplifying the voices and stories of diverse children's book authors and directing literacy resources throughout communities.















OUR IMPACT
COVID-19 has touched us all in different ways, including our health and emotional well-being.
For the homeless and underserved communities, the pandemic has had a much more severe impact, causing food, hygiene, and housing insecurity.
During this time of hardship, Storytime Crafts has put into place COVID-19 initiatives to provide free books to children and families in need, in addition to masks, hygiene products, bikes, games, and baby formula.
