Funding Literacy ... By the Book!

Welcome to the Better World Books Blog! We created this forum to connect you with other members of the BWB community and to help you stay informed. We think this will be a powerful tool for all of us as we continue to grow and expand our support for world wide literacy.

The Green Team
Posted by Kelly Franco, Pricing Specialist and Green Team Coordinator

You may or may not know, but not only is Better World Books green focused in our business practices, but we also make efforts in local communities, such as Mishawaka, IN where the warehouse resides.  Our "Green Team" embarks on many a green activity, be it Bike to Work Week or our latest effort:

So we’ve begun the co-op garden journey: the fence is partially erected; soil tilled; geometrically interesting (triangles) plots have been laid out- BUT we still need your help. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of next week we will have a drop-in volunteer session at 12:30 running for about 45 minutes. Come on out and help us prepare for planting next Friday. Check out the attached photo and see how much fun was had today!


Using frisbees to clean up, +1.  Breaking glass without safety gear engaged... -4.

[Ed: We don't do green because it's hip, we're green because when we leave work, that's what each of us is about and at Better World Books our company values are shaped by the employees, our primary stakeholders.]
