School’s out, but the need for books isn’t. Let’s keep showing up. Here’s how you can help — host a summer book drive. We make it easy to run, the deliverable is books, the impact is more books into more hands and homes of children who need them most.
Findings from a recently published five-year randomized controlled trial showed children from Bernie’s Book Bank schools made statistically significant reading gains. Every book your team collects is part of that impact.
Here’s how simple it is (you may already know the drill):
- Register your drive — a Bernie’s Book Bank team member will reach out to help you launch.
- Get your toolkit — everything you need to promote and maximize your impact.
- Collect books — and watch the books come in.
In every green bag of eight books is at least one book from the community, from someone like you. Community books are how we keep the bags full, the stories fresh, and our impact scaling.
Pick a week, rally your team, we’ll handle the rest.
Short on bandwidth this summer? Host a virtual book drive and turn dollars into books — same impact, none of the logistics. For every $16 raised you are building a bag of free, high-quality books for a child.
Partner with a purpose.
