Give Time

Books Between Kids would be nothing without the help of our volunteers. During the 2016-2017 school year, our fantastic volunteers spent over 5,000 hours to prepare more than 300,000 books for distribution to approximately 42,000 Houston children!

Volunteering at our warehouse can be a fun and rewarding experience. Projects vary based on needs but may include counting/inventorying donations, sorting books, boxing books, helping to stock the sorting tables, and cleaning the warehouse. Our volunteer shifts are 2.25 hours in length and are held at the Books Between Kids warehouse (view the map on our FAQs page).
