As 2025 comes to a close, we want to take a moment to say thank you! Your generosity and encouragement have helped Children’s Historical Publishing continue our mission—bringing history, art, and culture to life for children and families across our region.
With your help, we have now distributed more than 650,000 books across 33 titles, reaching students and schools throughout the Miami Valley. Each book is more than a story—it’s a bridge connecting children to the heritage, resilience, and hope that define their communities.
Your contributions also made The History of Hope in the Making: The Legacy of African Americans in Dayton project possible—a powerful blend of storytelling, education, and inspiration including:
With your support, we’ve helped students discover pride in Dayton’s African American heritage and see themselves as part of history’s ongoing story. Many educators are already saving these materials for 2026 Black History Month in February, ensuring the lessons continue to inspire well into the new year.
