WHAT WE DO

COLLECT

 

 

DONATIONS

We collect used and new books through generous donations from peers, organized school book drives, and partnerships such as Better World Books.

​

​

SORT DONATIONS

​

All of our donated books are sorted by grade level and genre in order to maximize convenience when selecting books to reduce contact and maintain social distancing.

DISTRIBUTE

​

​

​​​

The books are delivered to Baltimore City based organizations through their device and meal distributions to allow students to select their desired books.
