Where do the children's books go once they are collected? To The Children's Book Bank!
"The Children’s Book Bank provides free books and literacy support to children and families in high-needs neighbourhoods across the GTA. Since 2008, the Book Bank has operated a beautiful storefront space located in the Regent Park/St. James Town area, welcoming school, daycare and school groups, as well as families and their children to listen to stories, browse our collection, and choose a favourite book to take home to keep.
The Book Bank also provides books and literacy materials through community centres, schools, health clinics and social agencies throughout the city. Since opening, The Children’s Book Bank has given away over 1 million free books"
None of this would be possible without Geoff Woodmansey and his team at GPW Construction Inc!
Geoff and his team helped secure the Collection Boxes from The Home Depot and install them at each location! His support and kindness throughout the project made all the difference!
"GPW CONSTRUCTION is a residential & commercial remodeling and renovation company based in Toronto. We have spent the last 35 years building custom homes and commercial projects in many areas in the GTA. From expanding on the normal, to experimenting with architectural visions, we have become a trusted name in the construction field. "
The BOX SPOT has made it possible for us to pack up the books in amazing boxes! We take the boxes of books to their final destination prior to being distributed to children in-need!
Located at 542 Mount Pleasant Road, The Box Spot has almost every conceivable box possible for packing, moving, storing or shipping. We are so grateful for the support of The Box Spot!
