Giving Tree is Bear Pond Books's annual book drive for the Children's Literacy Foundation (CLiF), a regional non-profit whose mission is to inspire a love of reading and writing among low-income, at-risk, and rural children up to age 12 throughout New Hampshire and Vermont. CLiF works with rural public libraries & schools, daycare centers, summer camps, incarcerated parents, refugee & immigrant families, and more. Visit the Children's Room upstairs at the bookstore, pick out a book, and purchase it at a 15% discount. Books are gift-wrapped and donated to CLiF, who disperse the books to low-income children.
Thank you for supporting locally-owned independent booksellers!
