If your passion for reading has resulted in you amassing
more books than you can handle in your home, it’s probably time for you to do
something about it. Why not share your love of books with others who are less
fortunate than you? Each year, business and individuals alike donate their time
and tons of reading material to different organizations to help improve the literacy of the
people living in the surrounding communities
Donating your
unused books so that someone else can benefit from them is a great way for
you to do your part and to get involved with your local community. Very few things
are as rewarding as the sense of accomplishment and humanity you feel knowing
that your efforts are improving someone’s quality of life.
Take some time to clean out your book collection. Don’t be
afraid to get rid of those novels that you haven’t picked up since last year. You
can always replace them with something new and start the cycle again another
year. Make sure you sort them. Once you have them categorized and set aside to
be donated, get online and look up some of the local charities and organizations
who are accepting donations. You should even consider thrift stores and retail
shops.
A great way to make your efforts even more noteworthy is to
contact your friends and relatives so you can motivate them to match your donations
in books or to donate some of their time and money. There are many people, of
all ages who are not very literate and can benefit from someone taking the time
teach them how to read.
