Starting November 1st, the Downers Grove location of Barnes & Noble will be offering the opportunity to each of their customers the chance to purchase a new kids book for Sharing Connections.

The books will be delivered to our warehouse in mid-December to be used for our annual client Christmas program and will go directly to families using our services. In addition, books will be provided to schools that cannot afford to purchase books for their children's library.

"It's a great opportunity for familes that come into Sharing Connections to be able to provide their children with a gift that will also help them learn," said a Sharing Connections volunteer.

Benefits like this could not be possible without the wonderful support of businesses like Barnes & Noble and those that continue to support us through various donations. We encourage you to visit Barnes and Noble today and support their business so that they can continue to give back to the community.
