Happy Earth Day! Today and all year long, we're celebrating the power of reusing books and sharing stories. Did you know that each year an estimated 640,000 tons of books end up in landfills? That equates to hundreds of millions of books.

At 2nd & 7, we want to be part of the solution. Through the Columbus Kids' Book Bank, we collect thousands of donated books each month and redistribute them back into our community. Last weekend, we were fortunate to partake in the Seeds of Caring Earth Day Celebration to facilitate a kids' book swap. Events like these give stories new life and help our youngest readers see how small actions can make a big impact.

Together we can build a more sustainable future - one book at a time!

Thank you to all our amazing volunteer groups that came out to support our mission throughout the month of March! We were joined by Ohio State Field Hockey, Huntington Bank, Ohio State Wexner Medical Center, NetJets, and Orange Barrel Media. Each group sorted and restocked thousands of new and gently used books to prepare them for monthly Giveaways and online book requests. We are so grateful that you all chose to spend your time and energy with us!

If you are part of a team that would like to volunteer together, please let us know! Visit bookbank.secondandseven.com/volunteer and submit a Group Volunteer Request Form.

Earlier this week our friends at stopped by the Columbus Kids' Book Bank to drop off books from their book drive. During their visit, they read a Hog Mollies book and were joined by a special guest, 2nd & 7's very own Hoppy!

Before they left, they each got to pick out a few books to take home. By donating books and receiving a few of their own, they gained a better understanding of where their donated books go and how they are paying it forward to other kids in our community! Thank you to these kiddos, their families, and teachers for supporting our mission!
