Book Drive

/

Hi ICE families, we would like to inform you that the community service club is currently hosting a book drive in collaboration with Brooklyn Book Bodega until December 10th.

If you have any extra books that are lying around we would really appreciate it if you could donate them by dropping them off at the drop-off point in the 5th floor hallway. We will not be accepting any religious books, or textbooks/activity books. The books can be in any language.

If you would like to donate more books than you can carry or have any questions, please email me at micahhervey@iceeducate.org
