United We Read: Diversity Book Drive

January 31st – March 4th, 2022

Join Pocono Mountains United Way in our commitment to racial equity through our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion work by participating in our United We Read Book Drive. Our focus is to collect books with diverse characters, authors and illustrators of color to be gifted to children in Monroe County. We believe that children in our community should see themselves reflected in the books they read.
Make a difference in a child’s life by donating books one of three ways:
1. Donate new children’s books through our online wish list. Be sure to include your name and email address on a gift note so we can thank you for your donation.
2. Host a book drive within your company or community organization. Contact Roxanne@PoconoUnitedWay.org to get started.
3. Donate money using our online donation page and indicate “Book Drive” with your donation. At the conclusion of the drive, we will use 100% of donations to purchase more diverse books for our community.
Thank you for your support!
