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.

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.
