Volunteer: Donate Books to Metro United Way's Little Free Libraries!Because we know access to books is a leading indicator of a child’s success in school, we build, maintain, and fill a network of 42 Little Free Libraries. Since installing the first libraries in 2015, we’ve distributed 200,000 books. These libraries provide free and easy access to books for children and families who may live a distance from public libraries or lack convenient transportation. We can use your support to help keep the libraries full! You can donate new or gently used books to ensure that everyone who visits the libraries has books. Books can be dropped off to Metro United Way Monday-Friday 9am-4pm. Please email Dulce Solorio (dulce.solorio@metrounitedway.org) to coordinate a drop off time. WHAT TO DONATE: Books for children, youth and adults that are in good condition.Books written by and about people of color. Seeing themselves in books helps children with the vital skill of reading with comprehension and establishes an affinity with reading – the more children enjoy reading, and find meaning there, the more they will come back to books.WHAT NOT TO DONATE: Large books (they don’t fit in the libraries)Textbooks, encyclopedias, dictionaries, guidebooks, out of date texts, etc.Torn, water-damaged, moldy or dirty/dusty books Magazines, newspapers, etc. Romance novelsAgency: Metro United Way Because we know access to books is a leading indicator of a child’s success in school, we build, maintain, and fill a network of 42 Little Free Libraries.
