There is still time to purchase a book for my Juneteenth book drive. If you are able, please consider purchasing a book (or donating a gently used book). If you cannot donate, I hope that you will attend the celebration. It will be at Broadway Square this year and looks to be even better than last year!

Beverage Money: I am also collecting money for drinks if you would like to chip in a few dollars. All of the food and beverages during the event are free to attendees, so any amount helps. My Venmo is -Larson-1 and my Cash App is $JameeLarson.
Thank you all for your support. Please know that nothing is expected. I would much rather you attend the event if you cannot donate. You are what matters!

The response to my Juneteenth Book Drive has been amazing, but we could use more. Wouldn't it be amazing if everyone left with a free book? If you are able, please consider purchasing a book again this year (or donating a gently used book). If you cannot donate, I hope that you will attend the celebration. It will be at Broadway Square this year and looks to be even better than last year!
