Donate Your Used Books to First Book

From Mary McEntee, Student Center: First Book is a national literacy program that works through local Advisory Boards to provide new books for children in need. KSC-First Book has helped to distribute more than 2,000 books in the Monadnock Region and will hold another book grant cycle for interested programs in March. Children in an eligible program have the opportunity to receive a monthly free book (for six months) to take home and read with their family.

We are planning a used-book sale at the Winter Celebration on December 9th as a fundraiser for First Book. The books you donate will be resold and the money raised will be used to buy new books for local children in need. There will be a collection box (no textbooks please) in the Student Center Atrium labeled “First Book,” or you can email Student First Book Coordinator Chelsey Rothermel to have books collected anywhere on campus. Thank you in advance!
