826 Boston Book Drive

Thanks to everyone who donated books for our book drive. While we await the final tally, we can guarantee that we far exceeded our goal of 1,500 books! Next up? A shelf drive!

Actually, we're not kidding. We do really need more bookshelves. If you have sturdy wooden bookcases of any size, please let us know!

Or if you have carpentry experience and would like to donate some labor, we are interested in building a custom window seat/shelving unit along our wall of windows. Give us a call at 617.442.5400 if you can help.
