Until a few years ago, there was no library in San Francisco's Juvenile Hall. City Youth Now partnered with the San Francisco Public Library to bring a library facility to the Juvenile Justice Center.

With your gift, City Youth Now will provide an incarcerated youth with a book of his/her choice, fund literacy programs, and introduce young people, many of whom have never been in a public library, to the world of reading.

Your generosity will introduce many of the youth in Juvenile Hall to the magic that can be found between the covers of a great book-a healthy escape from the confines of Juvenile Hall.

Be a part of sharing the world of reading with underprivileged youth today!

You can make a difference.
