Description:

Reading Reflections was founded in memory of our grandparents, Edith and Morris Mendelsohn. Our grandparents were teachers who dedicated their lives to the education of their children, grandchildren and children of their communities. It is they who inspired our feeling for the importance of education and our passion for reading.

This inspiration has lead to us helping millions of children around the world who do not have easy access to books. We are helping to ensure that thousands of books are placed in the hands of eager youngsters.

As our project progressed, we began to enlist the help of our community. With the assistance of local school drives, bookstores, publishers, and an amazing group of volunteers, Reading Reflections has grow into the largest book donation and collection cnter on Long Island. Our initial collection of books tripled, and then tripled again, until our garages were stacked to the ceiling with thousands of books. As more shipments arrived, our infatuation with the effort grew. To date, we have donated more than 2.5 million books to children in need locally and abroad.

Cleaning out your child's room or attick? Donate your new or gently used books, and put a smile on a child's face. The need for new and gently used books is only growing. With our garages flowing with books in and out all year, are excited to reach our goal of 5 million books donated!

Reading Reflections welcomes donations of new and gently used books from publishers, booksellers, schools, organizations and individuals. Let us bring them to someone who can really use them. We accept books for both children and young adults.

We accept book drop-offs at the following three locations. Please make sure sure that you receive confirmation from a Reading Reflections volunteer before dropping off any books. if you would like to coordinate a book pickup, please contact us and let us know. Thank you so much for helping us help others!

Though our warehouse is in Long Island, we offer book pick-ups in New York City, Woodbury, and Stony Brook.
