I am participating in Kelly’s Book Drive that my friend Heather is hosting. Kelly is Heather’s dear step-mom that would have been 5o years old that day had she not graduated into heaven too soon for those that loved her. I thought Heather’s idea of honoring Kelly with a book drive was totally fun and knew I’d love to be a part of it.
But I was late in ordering my books. So really I only ordered my books by the deadline and didn’t donate them by the deadline. I think both Heather & Kelly will be OK with that. 🙂
Meanwhile, the books finally arrived today!! 🙂 I’m off to package my books for 3 of my favorite families and let Phil pop them in the mail tomorrow.
I hope they like getting new books!
So is the book drive plan just to donate them to whomever you want? I missed something!
Yes, sorry I wasn’t clear. You donate to wherever you choose. I chose people vs. places as I don’t have a local library we use. I think you can figure my 3 favorite little family groups. 🙂
thank you so much, dear friend!!!
Yes, Nancy, the book drive was to donate to whomever or wherever you are able. Most donated to doctor’s offices, libraries, schools, etc. but I gave JM permission to donate to families instead ; ) The point was just about getting books out around the world in memory of Kelly, and this would light her heart up tremendously; she was a children’s librarian and loved nothing more than helping a child fall in love with a book.
JM, your choice of donation and recipient both are perfect for the book drive! thank you!!
