Matthew Levy (15) and Daniel Levy (13) are two New York born and raised brothers who “got the message.” After experiencing stress and hardship in their lives and getting through it, these entrepreneurial-spirited teens got right to work and ran a book drive. Asking friends and family to donate new or gently used books, they were both surprised and thrilled to learn that they had received nearly 200 children’s books in less than a week from their generous community. The Levy boys have donated these beautiful books to The Messages Project, so that hundreds of families will have their lives brightened when we start filming in New York’s Sing Sing and Taconic prisons in the spring.
A big thank you to Matthew and Daniel, and to all those who supported them!
