It’s a wrap! Calgary Reads’ 17th annual Big Book Sale was held May 10-12 and was our most successful yet. Over 1100 volunteers sorted and set up books, 11,000 people came out to purchase them and $362,000 was raised to support Calgary Reads’ children’s literacy programs.
We are so grateful that Bracko Brothers supported us again with the loan of some great furniture. The “Bracko Lounge” was popular with our customers who were seen having a rest after the hard work of choosing books. It was a focal point in the room and a great meeting spot. The furniture was comfy and beautiful to look at. We loved it!
It was a generous donation and we so appreciate your support. Look forward to working with you again next year.
Thanks again!
