We always need people to help us open letters, match up requests, package books, organize book drives, and pick up donations. We meet on Sundays from 2-5pm and Wednesdays from 6-8pm (please note, we are currently not holding Wednesday hours but they will be back in the fall) at Beyondmedia Education, 4001 N. Ravenswood #204C. Feel free to stop by during any meeting.
Can’t make it Sunday afternoons? No problem. There are plenty of ways you can help during a time that’s convenient to you. Even if you have only a few hours to spare, we’d love to have you. Projects include:
- Securing book donations from individuals and publishers
- Mailing packages of books at the post office
- Answering letters and inquiries
- Stocking new books on the shelves
- Organizing and participating in fundraisers
- Working on our bi-annual newsletter
- Picking up book donations
- Storing extra books
- Getting the word out about the project
For more information on any of these activities, or to let us know you’re coming to a book packing, email us at chicagobwp@hotmail.com.
