Starbucks Book Drive

Date: 22 Nov 2007

The Bookdrive is back - Every year at this time the National Literary Trust/Children's Books Ireland (CBI) and Starbucks invite customers to donate new books in-store for local primary schools. Last year a remarkable 100,000 books were donated by Starbucks customers to help inspire a love of reading among children across the nation.With your help, we can reach even more children. This is the fifth year of the Bookdrive. In that time the project has collected and shared almost 230,000 books. Simply put, by giving the gift of reading, you can help unlock the potential of young people, giving them the ability to achieve their goals through literacy. You will find your local Starbucks on the first floor of the Howard Centre should you want to donate and we thank you for your ongoing support. Visit www.starbucksbookdrive.com for more details.
