Books for Keeps is back again! This time giving away over 5,000 books to more than 450 students at Gaines Elementary School! We'd love for you to be part of spreading the joy of reading by signing up to help students find 12 brand new, free books to take home forever.
Please feel free to reach out with a message here on GivePulse if you have any questions at all about the process beforehand.
Thank you, and we can't wait to see you at distributions!

- Before reporting to the media center, volunteers must sign in at the front office.
