Hello UBC Education Community,
This year LLED has chosen an amazing local non-profit charity that strives to provide books for children in need, Books for Me! Literacy Foundation. In an effort to raise awareness of this organization and have a larger impact, UBC Education Library is also supporting this great cause! Together our communities will collect gently used/new books, as well as monetary donations, for this non-profit organization from November 16 – December 14.
In addition, we are reaching out to our education community at UBC in hopes that you will also participate and help us donate books to this wonderful cause.
Books for Me! asks that donated books:
- be for children aged 12 and younger
- are clean and like new or brand new
- are not scary or violent
- are not affiliated with any religious group
You can donate books at both the LLED office (PCOH 2013) and the UBC Education Library in Scarfe. You can also donate money at the LLED office.
Please help us support this amazing organization that helps to build children’s libraries by donating books directly to children in Vancouver!
If you have any questions or concerns regarding donations, please do not hesitate to contact Liza Navarro (liza.navarro@ubc.ca).
