Review for Bookends, Los Angeles, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Gently used books all need a place to go to be read again. Bookends provides an opportunity for students to help other students through book drives and book shares. This is a positive way to keep literacy alive and keep the art of reading books part of education. Bookends hosts many events and opportunities to share books. I have hosted book drives and been at schools on the receiving end of drives. Either way is a great experience. Great organization!

Watching teachers and students get excited when hundreds of books arrive in my office. They can't wait to look through them and discuss them with friends and colleagues. Also I have been on the Scrabble event committee with a silent auction and seen the support of the westsiders for Bookends.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Expand it! Hire program directors for San Gabriel Valley and Inland Empire and then Orange County and then.....

Role:  Volunteer & Hosted a drive, received drives, participated on event committee.
