Give Time

We are currently not open for public volunteer shifts due to COVID-19 restrictions. If you would like to schedule a group volunteer shift, please contact Lara Powers at volunteer@booksbetweenkids.org. Thank you!

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 hours in length and are held at the Books Between Kids warehouse.  You can also view additional details about the warehouse volunteer shifts by viewing our Volunteer Details  or our FAQs page. To become a member of our volunteer community and to sign up for volunteer shifts, visit our page and create a profile on GivePulse.


Children as young as 5 are welcome.

Please provide 1 adult to supervise every 2 children under age 10 and 1 adult for every 5 children ages 10-15.

Children above the age of 16 can volunteer on their own.

Please note that our dock-high warehouse is not, at this time, ADA accessible. Please let us know in advance if you have any special needs so we can do our best to accommodate you.


If you would like more information about volunteering or would like to discuss a group volunteer opportunity please email us at volunteer@booksbetweenkids.org or call us at 832-831-1402 ext 805.
