Teacher Take
|
The BookSmiles Teacher Take program is a unique initiative designed to engage area educational professionals. Teachers are encouraged to register with a $25 donation that gives them access to come to the Book Bank and pick out 100-150 books per visit for the entire school year. This helps teachers, especially those new to the profession, establish updated and fresh classroom libraries. We also partner with teachers and schools to provide several thousand books for free book giveaways.
Are you a teacher in the New Jersey/Philadelphia region and would like to participate? Register here. |

Volunteer Sorting
Volunteer sorters are critical to our success. Since 2018, we have had hundreds of volunteers totaling over 3,000 volunteer sorting hours. Individuals, groups and corporate teams are invited to sign up to volunteer. Click here!
Book Drives
|
Book drives are an integral part of our mission. Without the support of individuals, groups, schools and businesses, we could not provide the books to the children we serve! More info on holding a book drive can be found here.

Creative Collection Bins
|
We created the original concept of transforming flip lid trashcans into works of art that collect children's books. Our bins are upcycling tens of thousands of books throughout the region.
I'd like to borrow a bin and hold a book drive! Email Larry@booksmiles.org I'd like to paint a bin!
