BOOK DRIVE and READ ACROSS AMERICA

BOOK DRIVE

Though we primarily run this drive in November & December, new and gently used books are always needed. Please drop off any donation items at the United Way of Northern Utah office.

GUIDELINES:

• - We require that used books be in good condition—they don't have broken binding, writing and scribbles, or missing pages.
• - Books must be age-appropriate for children from infancy to adulthood. This includes board books, picture books, early readers, and early chapter books.
• - The most needed books reflect various cultures including Spanish and bilingual books. 
• - You can make the biggest impact on the community by being careful with what books you collect and donate. We CANNOT accept any books of a religious nature, adult romance novels, or encyclopedias/textbooks.

Every Child Deserves to Reach Their Full Potential

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." -Dr. Seuss

Read Across America is a nationwide reading celebration that is the first week of March every year. 

This year, you can celebrate Read Across America with us by: 

1. Donate books to ensure every child has access to books in their home. Make a bigger impact by hosting a book drive!
2. Volunteer to read to children and inspire a love of reading.

2026 Read Across America volunteer opportunities are coming soon!
