Our very 1st Annual Book Drive was this past weekend on August 1st and 2nd. And much to our surprise, it was extremely successful!
Saturday is was pretty slow but we still received about 1200-1500 books. Sunday was busy all day and we were able to completely fill up our 16' truck! We received not only books but thousands of brand new stuffed animals and beanie babies, which are absolutely perfect for the gift bags! We received a ton of brand new items that included reading books, crayons, coloring books, toys, etc. All donations were just absolutely wonderful!
We had a great time meeting and talking to everyone that stopped by! We appreciate the support that we are receiving from the public. We are so excited about where this is all going and can't wait to start making our gift bags and get them delivered! We have a lot of entering and book selling to do first but it will all come together very soon!
