Books in the home are strongly linked to academic achievement and aids in development of children's communication and literacy skills.Throughout their 10 year partnership, Mainfreight Americas and Books in Homes USA has grown their footprints across the Americas as they end "booklessness" and strengthen literacy in our communities. Here are a few new participating schools Mainfreight and Books in Homes visited in the Carson and Compton districts where children were gifted new books of their choice to keep, add to their home library and read over the summer. In addition, Mainfreight gives credit to positive attitudes and outstanding behavior with the Mainfreight Award for Excellence, which one outstanding student from each school receives.
