Hey everyone!
One thing I’ve always believed is that a single act of kindness can create a ripple effect that reaches people you’ll never meet. That’s why I was so excited to continue our Cece in the City Cares campaign by donating books to the Covenant House.



As many of you know, I’m a proud bookworm. Reading has been one of the greatest gifts in my life. Books have helped me learn, heal, dream bigger, travel through stories, and gain new perspectives. Throughout history, books have been powerful tools for change. From libraries that preserved knowledge for generations to authors whose words inspired movements and transformed lives, books have always had the ability to open doors and create opportunities.
That’s why this donation was so meaningful to me.
A special thank you goes out to Brave + Kind Bookshop for helping make this donation possible, and a huge thank you to Mattese for generously donating books as well. Your kindness and support will help place stories, inspiration, and encouragement into the hands of others who may need it most.



My hope is that every person who receives one of these books finds something special inside its pages—a lesson, a laugh, motivation, hope, or simply a moment of peace. Sometimes the right book finds us exactly when we need it.
Giving back doesn’t always have to be grand. Sometimes it’s as simple as sharing a book, offering encouragement, or helping someone discover a new chapter in their life.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support Cece in the City Cares. Together, we’re proving that small acts of kindness can make a big difference.
Keep reading, keep learning, and keep spreading kindness wherever you go. 📚✨
