Fundraisers &
NEW Book Drives

Plan the basics of your book drive—who, what, when, where, and how.

• Who: Who will participate—your organization only, customers/clients, or the public?
• What (Goal): Set a clear goal (example: one new book per student/employee).
• When: Choose start and end dates. (Most drives work best at 1–3 weeks.)
• Where: Choose a high-traffic, clearly marked collection spot and a clean, secure place to store donations.
• How: Decide how you’ll spread the word (emails, flyers, social posts, internal announcements, friendly team challenges, and progress updates).

Let us know when your event will be held, and we will send you a packet with helpful materials. Customize the flyer, print signage, and set up collection bins.

Announce the goal, dates, and where to donate to your group or target audience. Make it easy to participate on day one.

You can also request a Kate’s Kart representative to do a presentation to your organization. Simply give us a two-week lead time and we will bring a tailor made presentation directly to you! Contact us for more details about this added benefit at info@kateskart.org.

Post progress updates, send reminders, and celebrate milestones. Thank donors and highlight team/class challenges.

Once you’re drive is complete, box up the books and count totals. Share final update and thank participants. Contact Kate’s Kart to coordinate drop-off or pickup of books. Do NOT take any donation directly to the hospitals.
