DONATED BOOKS WILL HELP SUPPORT LOCAL LITERACY PROGRAMS!
Yorkgate Mall held its 2nd Annual Community Book Drive in support of literacy programs in the community.
Visitors to Yorkgate Mall were asked to help donate a new or gently-used children’s & youth books at the Community Book Drive during March Break (March 11 – 15). Donations were dropped-off at the events table, located by Tim Hortons.
“We are overwhelmed with the support from the community, our retailers and corporate sponsors,” says Chris Couch, Marketing Associate at Yorkgate Mall. “Our shoppers have a history of generously getting behind our community programs. With an overwhelming number of books donated, we will help many needy individuals and families in our community as possible”.
For the Book Collection, people were being asked to clean out their basements, garages, and children’s rooms to pass on & share the gift of literacy.
Yorkgate Mall, located at Jane and Finch in Toronto, Ontario, offers over 60 stores and services under one roof including No Frills, LCBO, IDA Drug Mart, Dollarama and BMO.
