Leave a Book, Take a Book

On March 19th at 2:00 p.m., Jeremy Kelly of Kelly Realty will oversee the installation of a Little Free Library at Hope House Montgomery located at 430 Polk Street, Montgomery, Alabama 36107.

I have seen the Little Free Libraries in a few Montgomery neighborhoods and love the concept. The Little Free Library is a non-profit organization that strives to build community and create book access. The Little Free Library is a perfect partnership for Hope House Montgomery.

A friend of mine from Mercy House, Madison, introduced me to Jeremy Kelly knowing that reading was essential to Hope House Montgomery’s mission. Jeremy was impacted through reading and desires to pay it forward by giving other kids and adults opportunities to read life-changing stories. We are thrilled that he and his company are willing to fund the construction and installation.

Hope House Montgomery will monitor the Little Free Library and make sure a variety of books are available for neighborhood kids and adults to take and read. The thinking is, “leave a book, take a book.” 

If you are in the Highland Park area on March 19th, please stop by at 2:00 p.m. We would love to see you here as we launch our new Little Free Library. If you join us, bring your favorite book to give!
