Volunteer Projects

Groups and individuals can support our work in a variety of ways. The volunteer opportunities below can be done in any location and we’ll provide you with the templates and instructions to get you started.

Virtual Book Drive

Help under-resourced children build diverse libraries by hosting a virtual book drive. Download our Virtual Book Drive Flyer that links to our online book wish lists or direct participants to visit one of our independent book store partners to purchase books locally. 

Bookworms & Bookmarks

If you’re feeling crafty, you can build Bookworm Buddies, color our Bilingual Bookmarks, or fold little origami bookmarks. All three projects are fun, portable, and are given to our students to foster a love of reading. Download our templates and instructions here. Bookworm Projects

Host a Book Drive

Collect new and donated children’s books and drop them off at our Operations Center. Use our How To Run A Book Drive guide and our customizable flyers to save time!
