Books for Kids Program

As part of our Experience Corps program we also manage the Books for Kids program in which we collect new and gently used children's books and give them away to students in the Cleveland Schools. Each year over 5000 books are provided to children.

If you are interested in donating books or planning a book drive, call us at 216/391-9500 x119
