Gently Used Books for A Good Smile

July 16, 2009
BookCrossers tend to put their books where their hearts, or smiles are. Member pritzkit recently let us know about Kids Smiles, an organization in Philadelphia that provides children aged 2-16 in under-served communities with preventive and restorative dental care and innovative oral health education programs. They treat over 34,000 kids each year. Each child who completes the "dental detective" educational curriculum receives a book as a reward. If you have any gently used books that you'd be willing to donate to this fabulous program, you can send them to Kids Smiles, 3751 Island Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19153, Attn: Book Drive-V. Waitsman. If you'd like more information about Kids Smiles, feel free to contact Lauren Tucker (ltuckerkidsmiles AT gmail dot com)with the subject line "Book Drive-V. Waitsman" or you can PM pritzkit.

If you are collecting books for a charity or cause, try posting in the Community Bulletin Board forum to give others the opportunity to participate.
