Episode 5 - Making children's lives brighter one book at a time

This episode features Leslie Gang on the Ready.Set.Glo! Podcast 💫

In this episode, we're meeting with Leslie from Hindi’s Libraries!

Leslie Gang is a mother of 2, born and raised in Long Island NY. She currently works as the Director of Communications and Admissions at The Brandeis School, a private K-8 school in Lawrence, NY where her children currently attend.

She is the co-founder of Hindi’s Libraries, an international literacy nonprofit formed in memory of a teacher (and mother of 5) who passed away suddenly at the age of 32. The organization collects new and gently used children’s books and donates them all over the world at NO COST to families in need. Since the organization’s inception, they have collected more than 300,000 books and partnered with more than 650 nonprofits across all 50 states, Israel, India, Africa, Haiti, and Puerto Rico.

She is also the author of a short rhyming picture book entitled "But Family is Forever." This book, published by Pen It Publications, reminds readers about the importance of family while displaying various and diverse family dynamics representing all sorts of families. 'But Family is Forever' is available on Amazon and 50% of the proceeds go to Hindi's Libraries. 

Leslie is here to say that the power to make an impact is EASY.  Every small act of kindness matters is appreciated, recognized, and causes a ripple effect. Everyone can change the world.

We'd love for you to support this effort, even if it's simply sharing this information with a friend or coworker.
