Philadelphia Area Alumni Network #RedbirdImpact service project deadline

As part of #RedbirdImpact Month, the Philadelphia Area Alumni Network is partnering with the Laundromat Library League (LLL) to help make a difference in the community.

The LLL makes books available to children who may have few or no books at home by placing small libraries in laundromats. The group started in Pennsylvania and has expanded to 216 sites in 28 states. Types of books accepted include:

• New and gently used children’s books
• Ages infant through young adult
• Fiction and Non-fiction (please, no encyclopedias)
• Donate children’s books that donors would be proud to give to a child
• No old books that have yellowed over time and no torn covers

Those interested in donating can send books to Philadelphia Area Network Leader Phil Tripp ’75, M.S. ’77 (pictured above with his wife Margaret ’74, M.S.E. ’76), at 8 Oakbourne Road, West Chester, PA 19382. Those with questions can reach out to Phil. To be a part of #RedbirdImpact Month, please send your book donations by June 18.
