When I See Me BIPOC Children's Book Fair was created to pique children's curiosity, boost their confidence, and enhance their ability to connect with the world around them. The day includes author signings, panel discussions, and fun activities for children. A Book in Every Bag is our commitment to ensure that every child who attends the fair leaves with a book. With your support, we’ll provide custom drawstring bags and vouchers that children can redeem for a book of their choice from one of our participating authors. We can make a profound difference in the lives of children, igniting a love for reading that will last a lifetime. Donate at Bit.ly/WhenISeeMe
