Day of Action Book Drive

HELP US IGNITE THE NEXT GENERATION OF READERS!

United Way is hosting a community-wide book drive for preschool students to ensure they are ready to learn by school entry and reading at grade level by the end of 3rd grade. The books will be distributed to Middlesex United Way's funded partner programs and public and private child care centers in every town throughout Middlesex County. 

GET INVOLVED now!

There are three ways to get involved in the Community-Wide Book Drive:

  2. Donate NEW books from our recommended list (encourage your family and friends to as well) to a public drop-off location. Drop-off locations listed below!
  3. Participate in our Day of Action by sorting, labeling, and packaging the books on Monday, June 25, Tuesday, June 26, or Wednesday, June 27. Register here!
