One Small Chance Book Drive

From February to March 16, One Small Chance is hosting a community book drive to expand access to books in low-literacy communities across the Greater Richmond area. All donated books will be distributed to students and families in neighborhoods where access to age-appropriate, engaging reading materials is limited.

We are accepting new and gently used books in the following categories:

• Picture books

• Graphic novels

• Children’s books

• Teen & Young Adult (YA) books

• Adult books

• Multilingual books (especially Spanish and bilingual titles)

📌 Books should be in good condition (no excessive damage, missing pages, or writing).
