Thanks to everyone who shopped and volunteered at our book sale on Saturday October 22nd. This very important semi-annual fundraiser was a huge success due entirely to the support of our community. |

We spent several months organizing this sale and weeks preparing the space, which was donated by Lincoln Square Mall. On the day of the sale we had approximately fifteen Books to Prisoners volunteers and the additional support of fifteen Lincoln's Challenge cadets on site to handle the steady stream of people browsing and purchasing books by the box full. We raised $2900, which will continue to sustain our operation for quite some time. |
