The East Bay Children’s Book Project helps build literacy by putting books into the hands of children who have little or no access to them. Working through individuals and organizations who help children in need, we have given out more than a million free books since opening our doors in May 2005.
Please support Half Price Books. They have donated more than one million books to us. Now they are raising money to help support our mission.
Half Price Books is pleased to support local literacy organizations during National Literacy Month. This year HPB has several ways to support our literacy partners across the country. We hope you are as excited about September as we are! Here are the details:
The HPB coin box donation program: Local Half Price Books stores will feature your organization on the coin boxes at the cash registers so that customers can contribute their extra change to benefit you.
Literacy Benefit Day: 5% percent of sales on Saturday, September 8, will be divided evenly among our local literacy organizations (capped at $20,000). Last year this was an additional $600 per literacy partner.
Literacy Month Buttons! We have created a special National Literacy Month 4-pack of buttons for sale throughout September. All the proceeds from the sale of the buttons will benefit our local literacy partners.
