Donation to Campfire Columbia
Books For Kids collects and distributes books to underprivileged youth in over 50 agencies and organizations throughout Oregon and SW Washington. Through grants, donations, and partnering with local companies to raise funds for book purchases (thank you Barnes & Noble Bookstores) we are able to purchase new books.
In recent years our primary sources of these new books has been Scholastic and First Book Marketplace. Through judicious purchasing, coupled with donated new books, our average cost of new books is kept between $2 and $3 each. We also collect both new and like new children’s books as donations from a variety of sources, including book drives and other donation programs.
Every Child Should Have A Book To Call Their Very Own!
How Can You Help?
- Collect new books at your work, church or service organization.
- Whenever you buy a book, purchase an extra children’s book and donate it to Books For Kids.
- Volunteer to write a grant or organize a fund-raising drive.
- Lead us to discounted books available for purchase from publishers or book sellers.
We would be happy to accept your book donations at any of our monthly chapter meetings. If you collect a large number of books, please give us a call and we’ll make delivery arrangements as well as provide you with our profuse thanks and gratitude.
