The girls set out do a book drive when school started. Together they collected more than 900 books.
They started by asking their mom to post on social media. They asked people to drop books at their doorstep. They also notified neighbors that they would be picking up books on specific dates. They got a LOT of books!
The drive ran for 3 weeks. There were more than 900 books in all. They then sorted the books. The adult and religious books were separated from the children's books because they go to different places.
85 to 96% of the students at the schools we serve qualify for free meals. The books will be distributed by the schools to children when they pick up their meals.
