    Run a Book Drive…Help Us Provide Free Books for Children

    • Running a book drive is a great way to support the Early Literacy Initiative, give back to your community and make a difference in children’s lives. If you are interested in running a book drive, please call Read to Grow at 203-488-6800, or email Myra Healy, project coordinator.
    • Our Book Drive Tool Kit will help you get started and provide a step-by-step guide for your project.
