Saturday: ReadThis Collecting Books for Kids & Teens

From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. this coming Saturday in Park Slope, ReadThis
will be collecting books for kids and teens, new and used, for three
NYC places that serve children.

Where: My place — 532 Fifth St. between 7th and 8th Aves., the same
block as the Rite Aid

What is needed: New and gently used fiction and nonfiction for ages 6
months to 18 years

Who will get the books:
– P.S. 307, a Bronx elementary school without a library
– Incarnation Children’s Center in Manhattan, which serves kids and
teens living with HIV/AIDS
– Jump-Start Child Development Centers for kids ages 6 months to 6
years in New York City’s homeless shelters

This is part of a wider book drive organized by ReadThis. More info,
including drop-off sites in other neighborhoods at other times, is
available on Facebook via the ReadThis group and the event “ReadThis
Book Drive for NYC Kids in Need.”
