[pbpboston] Prison Book Program -- July update

Prison Book Program -- July update


Hi all!

Prison Book Program will be open its regular hours for the month of July: Every Tuesday & Thursday evening from 6:30-9:00 p.m. EXCEPT, we will be CLOSED the Fourth of July week (closed Tues 7/3 and Thurs 7/5).

Also, one special Saturday in July -- 7/28 from 10am to 4pm (also, late notice, but we are also open THIS Saturday June 30th from 10am to 4pm).

So come in out of the heat to our coooool basement; bring those paperback books to donate, a couple of friends, and join us to read letters from prisoners' and make up book packages to send out. No experience nor RSVP needed!

Another important announcement:

Prison Book Program is pleased to be the recipient of a grant from the Gardner Howland Shaw Foundation. The Gardiner Howland Shaw Foundation was established in 1959, and funds initiatives that demonstrate a current awareness of important problems confronting our criminal and juvenile justice systems. Thanks to the Shaw Foundation for supplying a much-needed grant to PBP for the second year running!

Thanks, as always, to YOU for your support!
