Welcome to our book drive! The Avionte Hope Foundation, Usborne Books & More and Melissa Blackstad have teamed up to make this book drive for My Very Own Bed a success!
My Very Own Bed is an organization based out of Minneapolis, Mn that provides brand new twin size beds to kids that don’t have their own. Most of these kids have recently transitioned out of homelessness. Along with the bed, the child receives a Dream Kit. In the Dream Kit is bedding, a book and a stuffed animal!
We are collecting monetary donations for our book drive. Our goal is to provide at least $3,000 of books for My Very Own Bed to go in the Dream Bags! Your donation will be matched at 50% by Usborne Books & More matching grant called Literacy for a Lifetime.
Usborne Books & More has a large variety and diversity of books
that we will be able to donate!
Donation amounts:
$20 donation= $30 of free books
$40 donation = $60 of free books
$60 donation = $90 of free books
$80 donation = $120 of free books
$100 donation = $150 of free books
Thank you SO MUCH for your support of our book drive! We know we will provide a little extra joy for so many children!
