Kelsey saw a bunch of cars parked outside our space today and was asking if he could wash cars. One of our volunteers asked if he could vacuum the inside after they dropped off some books at the thrift store across the street.
“Are you giving those books away? I love books. Can I look through them first?”
We told him about our mission and his eyes got wide. “Oh my God, I just got out of Parchman. I can’t believe I’m meeting you guys!” Kelsey had received books from us on the inside.
Kelsey is starting a car detailing business and is currently at a halfway house. We asked him to pick out all the books he wanted from the shelves. Here’s what he chose.
We are currently accepting general book donations! Please make sure your donations are in reasonably good condition and are paperback.
We especially need Stephen King books and all books in the Twilight Series.
We currently are not accepting general book donations, but we do need the following:
Your donations to BHB make it possible for us to help librarians like Jeff in the Leake County Correctional Facility Library! He needed a book and CD in order to fix their library system software, and we were able to purchase a used copy for him to work with. Thank you!!
We were thrilled that BHB volunteer and Mississippi Roads producer Scott Bradfield invited us to be a part of a show all about books! Check out the full episode here.
Happy New Year, friends!
We get many requests for calendars. If you have any soft cover 2019 calendars or planners, we could use them! We are not able to send in spiral bound books.
Lots of sizes and colors! Each purchase sends 3 packages of books to prisoners, and helps us spread the word.
You can purchase by clicking here, at a book packing party, or come see us on Saturday, September 29th at Wellsfest to buy one in person.
