OVP Book Drive

OVP February Book Drive, February 14-March 1


Help the Office of Volunteer Programs spread the love of the written word! Donate new and gently used books to support local schools and non-profit organizations in East Central Illinois.

Recent (within 6 months) magazines and journals may also be donated to be sent to troops currently serving overseas. Books may be dropped off beginning February 14 at: Office of Volunteer Programs, Illini Union Bookstore, and the Illini Union Courtyard Cafe. Most needed books are multicultural and bilingual books.
