    Description

    Run a Children's Book Drive

    We rely on volunteers to organize children's book drives so we can keep giving away new and like-new, culturally relevant, high-interest books to children who need them in the Greater Bay Area and beyond.

    A children's book drive is easy to organize, helps build children's literacy, keeps books circulating, and generates good vibes!

    You can run a drive for any duration of your choosing-some last only a few hours at a specific event, others take weeks, months, or are ongoing-with as many volunteers as you care to involve. It's entirely up to you!

    Visit childrensbookproject.org/give-books/ for our donation guidelines and procedures, and click on Organize a Book Drive at the bottom of that page for more details.

    Thank you!
