in need. Advertise throughout your Fair that funds raised from your All for Books campaign will purchase books for the school you’ve chosen. At the end of the Fair, purchase books from your Fair with the money raised, and have Student Crew members deliver the books.

Story
All Hands on Deck for All for Books!
Bascom Elementary School Leavittsburg, OH
As Bascom’s Bookaneer Adventure
Book Fair approached, the air filled with anticipation and the deck bustled with activities, including their All for Books campaign. The Book Fair chairperson and volunteers involved local businesses by mailing letters and setting out donation boxes. Students jumped on board too, donating to the “Pennies for Pirates” classroom competition. In total, they raised a school record of $1,165 which purchased books for every child in the school, books for the library, books for teachers, and books for a women’s shelter!
