Tata Technologies Partners with First Book, Promotes Children’s Literacy in Metro Detroit with Holiday Donation of 2,000+ Books
Tata Technologies distributed more than 2,000 new books throughout greater Detroit this holiday season, through its partnership with First Book, a nonprofit organization that provides new books to children from low-income families. The donations were made possible by a $5,000 donation by Tata Technologies to First Book.
More than 20 volunteers from the Tata Technologies North American Headquarters office in Novi, Mich., distributed the books to children at four schools between December 19-20 – Catherine Ferguson Academy in Detroit, Garfield Elementary School in Livonia, John Glenn High School in Westland, and Snow Elementary School in Dearborn.
Warren Harris, President and COO of Tata Technologies joined the volunteers, personally visiting Catherine Ferguson Academy.
“Tata Technologies places great emphasis on giving back to the communities of which we are a part,” said Mr. Harris. “Our partnership with First Book demonstrates the Tata Technologies commitment to promoting literacy, and we are pleased and proud that it has allowed us to help support schools in the metro Detroit area.”
“We are thrilled with Tata Technologies’ decision to further children’s literacy throughout greater Detroit, and to contribute to First Book’s greater mission of providing new books to children across the United States,” said Kyle Zimmer, President and CEO of First Book.
