In observation of this wonderful season of giving, I would like to invite you all, readers, writers, and word-enthusiasts alike, to join me in giving back. It is true that there are countless of those in need this winter and that organizations the world-round will be doing their best to provide nourishment and essentials to said people. However, it is not always food and warm clothing that qualify as the "essentials". It is also equally important to learn and to grow and to dream. So, this Holiday Season I am asking those of you in the CSU East Bay area to come together and help me in Project Book It, a book drive.
I am hoping to gather books for people of all ages, from children to young reader to teen and adult. At this moment I am still looking for a proper charity/shelter to give them to (and am open to suggestions) but I thought that I should give you all a heads up so you can plan accordingly. Donations will be accepted all day but preferably between the hours of 7-3 (you know where to find me). I will, hopefully, be collecting until December 16th and will soon after donate them. (Information on charity/shelter soon to arrive). Please, do something to give back this holiday season, no donation is too small. Lets do all we can to provide those less fortunate with the comfort and ease of a book.
I have attached an RSVP form, those participating please fill one out so I can gauge how many donations I can expect. Happy Holidays and Happy Reading!
