Help End Book Poverty!

Be a part of the Decatur Education Foundation’s “Reader to Reader” children’s used book sale.  The proceeds from this book sale are an important funding source for several programs sponsored by DEF that promote a love of reading and literature for Decatur students.

 

  • Having a cook out, family reunion, dinner party or birthday celebration? Turn a nice summer social event into a book collection gathering by inviting your guests to bring their gently-used children’s books to the party.

  • Planning a yard sale this summer? Donate the left over children’s books to the DEF book sale.

 

  • Are you a member of a book club? Ask your fellow club members to bring their gently used children's books to your next meeting.
