When
Kenneth Cole is known for his philanthropic efforts”, stated Kimberly Wilson (Communications Manager). “When Charlynn Walker (Community Relations for Kenneth Cole) donated funds to the organization, there was no question designer Kenneth Cole would take more interest in how to get involved” Presently, Cole has done multiple events with “Making Books Sing”, which have all been exceptionally successful.
WPIX-Ch. 11 (NYC) “Morning News” anchor, Sukanya Krishnan was the VIP host and guest reader of the night. She shared an excerpt from the book “Chachaji’s Cup” by Uma Krishnaswami. As Krishnan read the story, you can tell it hit close to home. The main character in the book “Neel” was also of Indian descent living in the United States. After concluding her reading, Krishnan familiarized herself with the same struggle of culture shock and acceptance of the character. This simple presentation displayed the power of the written word and how important it must be to individuals who feel alone in this world. So, let us help books continue their beautiful songs!
