@AppalachianPBP @tbabystillz @btbphilly @tbabystillz please reach out! Happy to coordinate with you.
@AppalachianPBP Hello-I work for a prison support organization. Do you ship to SCIs in Pennsylvania?
@tbabystillz We don’t mail books to Pennsylvania, but there are two great books to prisons orgs similar to APBP that are based in your state! Reach out to @PGHPBP or @btbphilly.
The November bundle launched but we forgot to post about it. freebirdbooks.com/shop.html Last month we took a break from collecting books to focus on good old fashioned cash fundraising especially as our collective faces new challenges from state corrections facilities.
Meet our new volunteers, Mady, Cal, and Lindsey! Interested in helping us send books to incarcerated folks? Sign up for a training session to start volunteering with APBP: appalachianprisonbookproject.org/get-involved/v…
Toulouse’s favorite part of being an APBP volunteer is collecting boxes after new donations are unpacked.
Attention Morgantown, WV folks: Are you a seasoned APBP volunteer? Do you want to get more involved? Become a volunteer trainer! If you want to learn how to host training sessions for new volunteers or if you are already a trainer and want a refresher, join us on August 19.
