Volunteer Opportunity – Book In a Bag

Benefitting Valley of the Sun United Way

Get ready to spark some joy and imagination! Volunteers will bring books to life by decorating
brown paper bags with colorful characters, fun designs, and words of encouragement. Each
decorated bag will be paired with a donated book, helping kids in our community build their very
own libraries.

Ways you can participate:

• Donate a Book We’re asking for new or gently used children’s books. Donations will be accepted up until the day of the event. Drop off box can be found at the Ryan Companies Office.
• Decorate a Bag Unable to donate a book? No Problem! Come by and use your artistic flair to decorate bags for kids who will treasure them. We’ll fill them up with children’s books.

Let’s come together to add color, imagination, and encouragement to the lives of young readers in our community! Craft supplies will be provided, just bring your creativity!
