THE BOOK TRUCK EAGLE SCOUT PROJECT


Hi Everyone!

My son, Marc, is finally ready to launch his Eagle Scout project - a book drive for a non-profit L.A. based organization called The Book Truck.  The Book Truck provides new and gently used books to at-risk teens in the Los Angeles area. Marc's goal is to collect 500+ books by February 15th. He will also be constructing two rolling book carts for the organization to use.

Best-selling children's book author, Cornelia Funke, is a strong supporter of The Book Truck. You can learn more about The Book Truck here:  http://www.thebooktruck.org





If you'd like to participate in Marc's Eagle Scout project, please bring your new and/or gently used young adult and adult books to the Santa Clarita Schmooze at Barnes & Noble, Valencia on February 13th 7:30-9:00pm (and enjoy our guest speaker Jenn Reese, author of Above World and Mirage,) or ship to:

Marc Reyes

    1. I don't think they accept magazines. Just books for teens. But thanks!
