BEVERLY HILLS—On Friday, January 17, the city of Beverly Hills announced on its Facebook page that the Beverly Hills Unified School District is spearheading a donation drive to provide books to the libraries affected by the LA County wildfires.

They are asking the community to take part in this effort, where many libraries were destroyed or loss materials because of the wildfires. The collaboration aims to ensure that every student has access to the books and materials needed to succeed, no matter the challenges.

Individuals can help by:

  1. Visit bhusd.org/books.
  2. Select a book and choose The Hawthorne Campus as the delivery address.
  3. The book will automatically be shipped to The Hawthorne Campus.

For more details on rebuilding libraries lost in the fires, visit www.bhusd.org.
