Better World Books

Hey Sub-region E!

I just wanted to give you a head's up about a live chat with Service Ambassador Monica and Better World Books (BWB) Partners Specialist Mary! This chat will take place on March 1st on Chatzy. Start making plans with your club to host a book drive and come to the chat with any questions you or your club might have about a book drive!

Are you wondering how to do a book drive now? Well, here's a little info about the book drives so you can talk with your club about it before the chat on March 1!

I can tell you from personal experience that book drives are really easy and can actually be fun! I was the contact for my home club when we did our book drive for BWB, and the lady who worked with me from BWB was absolutely AMAZING! She emailed me to check on us and see how everything was going. She responded to emails very quickly and was always willing to help. BWB will ship the collection boxes, posters, and the return shipping boxes to you. At Concord, we did the book drive during book buyback. We were allowed to place one of our boxes right outside of the bookstore, so students were very willing to drop off books that the bookstore wouldn't buy back. How easy was that? Extremely easy! Plus, the return shipping is covered, so your club doesn't have to pay to return the books! Once you finish the book drive, simply transfer the books from the collection boxes to the shipping boxes. Login to the Client Portal and follow the directions to print off the shipping labels. Call to schedule a pick-up and meet the delivery man (or woman) and there you go! It's pretty easy!

If you have any questions before or after the March 1 chat, please feel free to contact me. Thanks for reading and have a great day! God bless!
