Book Drives & Bookmarks Needed

United Way is in need of new and gently loved books for children kindergarten-6th grade that will be distributed through several United Way Profit In Education programs.

United Way is also calling for volunteers to make bookmarks, write encouraging notes or color pictures that will be included in books that are distributed to children to help them build their home libraries.

Individuals and organizations interested in creating bookmarks, donating books or conducting a book drive can contact Jodi Flurry or call United Way at 816-364-2381 for more information or to arrange for item pick-up or delivery.
