ChAngels to host a Pajama Party!

On February 5th, ChAngels, in conjunction with M Magazine and Books Inc., will host a Pajama Party, to collect books and pajamas for local children in need. The books and pajamas will be distributed through the local chapter of the Pajama Program.

The Pajama Program provides new pajamas and books to children in orphanages, group homes and shelters, many who have never enjoyed the simple comfort of being tucked into bed and read a bedtime story. Many of these children go to bed wearing their street clothes or nothing at all.

With 77 chapters in 44 states throughout the United States, the Pajama Program has provided more than 433,000 pairs of pjs and 190,000 books to children nationwide since 2001. The Northern/Central California chapter, founded in 2006, currently works with over 35 local agencies.

Plan to join us anytime between 4pm and 7pm, at Books Inc. 855 El Camino Real in Town and Country, Palo Alto. Special guest, Dave Keane, author illustrator, will be reading from some of his favorite bedtime stories: www.mrdavekeane.com. Enjoy an art project and sweet treat. Guests are encouraged to bring new pajamas to donate and/or purchase a new book at Books Inc. to add to the donation baskets. Books Inc. will donate 20% of the sales during the event to the local chapter of the Pajama Program.

Guests are welcome to wear their coziest pjs and slippers! Please join us for this event and help us to share the warmth and comfort of a good night's sleep.
We hope to see you there!
