Fresno County Bar Association

The Fresno County Bar Association presents

Book Drive

Our Firm is participating in “Book ‘Em”, a project of the Fresno County Bar Association to collect at least 100,000 gently used books to be distributed to the most disadvantaged schools in Fresno County.

Literacy remains a major area of concern in the Central Valley and this project is designed to address one of the major issues related to it, simply the lack of books available to so many of the youth in our county. It is estimated that more than 25% of the students in Fresno County schools live in homes with no age appropriate books. Our attorneys and staff are actively engaged in supplying books for this project and we wanted give our clients the opportunity to participate. We would greatly appreciate any books that you would like to donate to our pile. Any books from pre-readers to high school appropriate are welcomed.

The collection period is from August 1 to August 31. If you would like more details or you are interested in contributing, please contact Tim Sullivan at 433-2203 or by email at tim.sullivan@mccormickbarstow.com to get more details.
