UCI Book Drive

UCI’s Annual Book Drive

Donate Monday, February 3 – Friday, March 28

Please join us and the Community Action Partnership of Orange County (CAPOC) in launching the 13th annual UCI Book Drive. Beginning February 3 through March 28, we will be collecting new and like-new books to address the literacy needs of our local community.

The Community Action Partnership of Orange County runs several family resource centers designed to strengthen families and the communities that surround them. The centers provide an environment that helps families become safe and stable. These books will be used as educational and recreational resources in assisting families in need. Thank you for your support of this worthwhile community project.
