CODE 123 PLAYGROUND MAGAZINE

One Publishing Home. One Educational Mission. One Nonprofit Purpose.

Why Are Four Publications on One Website?

Media Queen Publishing is the publishing umbrella that houses our family of publications: Today’s Ebony Woman, Blown Woofer, Modelocity, and Code 123 Playground.

Rather than creating four separate websites, we have created one publishing home—MediaQueenPublishing.com—where readers, educators, supporters, and partners can discover all of our publications and learn about the work behind them.

Each publication has its own identity, audience, and content. However, they are connected by a larger vision: using the power of publishing to educate, inspire, inform, encourage reading, and help young people discover possibilities for their future.

Where Does the Nonprofit Fit In?

Code 123 Playground is our nonprofit educational initiative.

While Media Queen Publishing provides the publishing umbrella and shared online home, Code 123 Playground is the nonprofit initiative that seeks grants, charitable donations, sponsorships, and educational partnerships to support youth literacy and educational programs.

Our goal is to use those resources to help provide publications and educational experiences to students free of charge.

When you see all four publications on MediaQueenPublishing.com, it does not mean that donors have to support four separate organizations or four separate websites.

It means that one publishing umbrella brings our publications together in one place, while Code 123 Playground provides the nonprofit pathway for charitable support focused on students and literacy.

Your Donation Helps Put Reading Into a Child’s Hands.

We believe children should have access to interesting, engaging reading material that encourages them to ask questions, explore new subjects, learn about people in their communities, discover careers, and imagine what they can become.

Your donation to Code 123 Playground helps us work toward that goal.

Funds raised through Code 123 Playground can help support:

● Free publications for students

● Printing and distribution to schools and youth organizations

● Literacy and reading-comprehension initiatives

● Student writing, journalism, photography, and publishing opportunities

● Educational workshops and career exploration

● Content that introduces young people to positive community members, careers, entrepreneurship, creativity, and culture
