Black Childrens Book Drive

A child who sees themselves in a book learns something powerful: their story matters.
In honor of National Reading Month, the Detroit Alumnae and Delta Psi chapters of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. are proud to collaborate on collecting Black children’s books for a DPSCD elementary school library. All young readers deserve to find themselves on the page.

Here’s how you can participate:
 Shop at a Black-owned bookstore or any retailer of your choice and drop off your donation at one of the locations below.

 Can’t make a drop-off? Purchase a book directly from our Amazon Wish List at bit.ly/DSTBookDrive and it will be shipped directly to us.

 Drop-off locations and dates:
 March 17 | 6:13–7:30 p.m. | University of Detroit Mercy, Engineering Bldg., Room 120
 March 18 | 5:13–6:30 p.m. | U-M Dearborn, College of Arts, Sciences, and Letters, Room 1015
 March 19 | 6:13–7:30 p.m. | University of Detroit Mercy, Engineering Bldg., Room 140
 March 21 | 11 a.m.–3 p.m. | DSTDFI Headquarters, 24760 W. 7 Mile, Detroit, MI 48219

Every book donated is an investment in a child’s imagination, identity, and future. Together, we can build a love of literacy and a legacy of possibility — one book at a time.
