Taylor Swift has formed a partnership with the Scholastic Possible Fund. The multi-Grammy Award winner (pictured, via) intends to show support for the Open a World of Possible initiative.
Swift will donate 25,000 books to 25 New York City-based schools. Each institution will receive 1,000 children’s books.

Greg Worrell, the president of Scholastic Education, gave this statement in the press release: “Scholastic is honored to join with Taylor Swift who continues to show a passion for literacy and a commitment to spreading the message of how influential books can be in a child’s life. Through this donation, we aim to encourage independent reading which inspires a love of learning and to ‘Open a World of Possible’ for more New York City students by making sure they have access to the very best children’s books.”
