Summary
This World Book Day, be the reason a story is shared. We’re looking for volunteers who can help collect books from around Stevenage and nearby areas.
Detailed description
This World Book Day, we’re bringing stories together for a great cause.
To mark this year’s World Book Day, we’re organising a special fundraising initiative and inviting residents of Stevenage and surrounding areas to donate their unwanted books. For a small donation, we’ll collect them directly from their homes during pre-agreed time slots.
To make this possible—and to reach as many donors as we can—we’re looking for a group of kind, reliable volunteers who can help by driving, collecting the books, and delivering them to our depot at SG4 7JY.
Pickup locations will be confirmed on 4 March, and routes will be assigned to you then.
In addition to being a driver on the day, we’d love your support in spreading the word and promoting our book collection to friends, family, and the wider community.
Together, we can give books a second life and make this World Book Day truly meaningful and impactful. 📚✨
About Just be a Child
We believe that books shouldn't end up in a landfill. We believe that they belong into the hands of children and people who may have never seen one. So we build libraries from shipping containers using books you no longer need. We have started in Kenya, but hoped to build libraries wherever they are needed.
