In line with this, we are in need of more or less 300 hundred volunteers who are healthy and able to carry ten books at a time, sort and label over 100,000 books on March 18-20, at 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 a.m. and 1:00 - 5:00 p.m. Unloading will be done at the BRS Building.

Your commitment to bring in at least 20 volunteers from your college or office for each of the times and dates provided is highly appreciated. With your help, we will be able to change the lives of almost 100,000 children and families with the hope of bringing resource assistance for the improvement of the quality of education in this country.

Your volunteerism counts as we continue to give back to the community. Thank you for your usual cooperation.
