About Turn The Page Inc.

What is TTPI?
Turn The Page Inc. is an incorporated 501 (c) (3) charitable and literary organization that promotes reading as a foundation for the advancement of children and young adults.

Turn The Page Inc. provides books to increase the resources of inadequately funded Illinois public and school libraries.

Who founded TTPI?
Krista Wodarz founded Turn The Page Inc. in October 2003. Krista is passionate about providing young readers with access to books that are of interest to them. She believes one beloved book will lead to the desire to read another. As children read more, they will become better readers. This will prepare them to read the material necessary to pursue their dreams.

Why was TTPI founded?
Turn The Page Inc. was founded on the premise that a simple gesture such as recycling your slightly used books or funding new books for under resourced libraries will have a lasting impact on children's futures. By creating a print-rich environment, children are introduced to the joy of books and a love of learning which will result in their ability to harness the power of knowledge.

Who works for TTPI?
Our board is made up entirely of volunteers who believe that access to reading materials can add volumes to a child’s future.

How are donations spent?
We are staffed by volunteers so your entire gift will be used for shipping expenses and to purchase books that bridge the gap between the specific requests from libraries and the books in our donated inventory.
