Got too many books? Probably. We know someone who could use them. Help us to get books into the hands of our community with YellowDog’s the second annual Dog-Eared Pages Book Drive benefiting BookGive!
Just bring your new and gently used books to YellowDog next time you’re in the neighborhood. All donations will help BookGive fulfill requests they receive from nonprofits, schools and individuals in the Denver metro area. This donation drive will also help stock their Free Book Room!
Trade you bookmarks for books
As a thank you, we’re gifting a FREE variety pack of dog-eared bookmarks when you donate three books. We love a well-loved book, but the good old dog-ear is pretty ruff on fragile pages. Keep your favorite books nice and donation-ready with these mini die-cut delights!
Did we mention we designed and printed these babies right here at YellowDog??

About BookGive
BookGive is a Denver book charity that sparks a lifelong love of reading by fueling the community with free books. They distribute new and gently used books from our service station to individuals, schools, and nonprofits throughout metro Denver.
YellowDog has worked with the amazing individuals behind BookGive for years. We’ve collaborated with the wizard behind the curtain, Nicole Sullivan, on branding for her empire – BookBar, BookGive, The Bookies, Read Club Hub, and Views from the West Press. We’ve loved creating incredible pieces for all of these businesses and are always looking forward to Nicole’s next big idea.
