During Summer Sizzle, PMPI’s Community Outreach Committee will be on hand to collect new and gently used books – all books are welcome, but children’s books (ages 3 to 18) are preferred. The books will be donated to Hope and a Home, a local nonprofit in the District of Columbia with a unique approach to helping low-income urban families gain economic stability. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Shavonne Harding at shavonneph@gmail.com.
