Books Through Bars Pack-A-Thon





On Sunday, 23 November, Drexel PLG members and supporters gathered at the A-Space in W. Philly to offer their book selection and packing services to Books Through Bars, a non-profit organization "send[ing] quality reading material to prisoners and encourag[ing] creative dialogue on the criminal justice system, thereby educating those living inside and outside of prison walls."

This was many members' first experience working with Books Through Bars, but everyone felt so empowered and encouraged by the success of the event that another pack-a-thon is currently being planned for mid-December. Email drexelplg@gmail.com if you're interested in joining us!
