Do something epic
Love
books? So do we. But there are millions of tweens and teens who don’t
have access to your best-loved paperbacks and hardcovers. Sixty-one
percent of low-income families don’t have age-appropriate books in their
homes for kids to read. That’s wear DoSomething.org’s Epic Book Drive
comes into play. The purpose is to motivate teens to take action on
education inequality.
Want to give your favorite book to a tween or teen in need? Log on to
DoSomething.org to find a book drive near you—and score step-by-step
tips on how to run a book drive of your own.
Last year, the first annual Epic Book Drive collected over 200,000
books. This year, organizers are hoping to more than double that number.
Check out the PSA below from pop and R&B star Keri Hilson, and then log on to DoSomething.org to, well, do something!
