📦💔 THE GREAT CARDBOARD BREAKUP IS OFFICIALLY UNDERWAY! 💔📦
Thanks to some amazing supporters, we are well on our way to saying “It’s not you, it’s us” to our old cardboard book sale boxes.
🥳 So far, we can break up with 25 boxes!
📦 Only 175 more breakups to go!
Want to help us make it official? For just $20, you can sponsor ONE cardboard breakup and help us replace an old cardboard box with a sturdy, safer storage container.
That’s right. $20 = one less cardboard box in our lives. 👋📦
Will you sponsor a breakup?
Because cardboard… we are never, ever, ever getting back together. 🎶💔
Every $20 gets us one box closer to a safer, more organized book sale—and one step closer to making this breakup permanent!
📦💔 WE ARE NEVER, EVER, EVER… GETTING BACK TOGETHER. 💔📦
It’s official: we’re breaking up with cardboard boxes.
They’ve been with us through countless book sales. They’ve held mysteries, romances, cookbooks, and more than a few questionable donations. But the relationship has run its course.
Cardboard is tired.
Cardboard is flimsy.
Cardboard does *not* age gracefully.
And our volunteers deserve better. 😂
Our goal is to raise $6,500 before November 1st to replace our worn-out cardboard boxes with heavy-duty, reusable storage containers that will make storing, moving, and setting up thousands of donated books safer and easier for our volunteers.
So help us say:
🎶 *We are never, ever, ever… storing books in cardboard together.* 🎶
Every donation—whether it buys part of a container, a whole container, or helps us finally kick these boxes to the curb—gets us closer to a safer, sturdier book sale setup.

Because sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is admit…
It’s not us. It’s the boxes. 📦👋
