Used Children's Book Drive

The St. John Brebeuf Parish/School Association, in conjuncton with Bernie's Book Bank, is holding a Used Children's Book Drive from February 1st - 24th, 2012. 

Bernie's Book Bank is a 501(c)(3)organization dedicated to connecting books needing children with children needing books!  Please go through your basement, boxes and bookshelves and donate new or used books that you no longer need or read to this worthy cause. There are receptacles near the front office of the school and in the church lobby for collecting. 

Bernie’s Book Bank accepts books 6th grade level and below, including board books.  ALL books donated will be distributed quickly to area children in need.

 **please no workbooks, text books or reference books**

Their goal is to collect 1 MILLION children's books a year by 2013!  The record for the most books collected from a single school is 10,500.  Let’s see if we can beat that!
