Donate Your Books, Movies, and Music to Benefit Kosair Children's Hospital

Do you have any books, CDS, DVDs, vinyl records, VHS tapes, or cassettes that you would like to donate for a worthwhile cause? Honors Student Council is hosting a campus and community-wide book and media sale in April to benefit Kosair Children's Hospital. Our goal is to raise $5,000 for Kosair's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit but to do so we need to collect a substantial amount of books. We would be incredibly grateful if you took the time to look through your books, music, and movies in your room and home to select a few items to donate to this sale. Any amount of donations will be accepted, but the only items we are unable to accept are older textbooks. If you would like to donate items, please contact Greg Shaw for pick up (geshaw01@louisville.edu) or items can be dropped off at the Etscorn Honors Center. Thank you!
