Hi, just a correction to the book donation list above, K.I.D.S. does not accept used books. We only take new books, generally from publishers and retailers that have excess inventory. The reason for this is that we don't have warehouse and sorting capabilities; we instruct donor companies where to ship the books directly to smaller charites in need. If you have used books, please donate them to one of the other charities listed here. Thanks!
