Bring along any gently used baby books, first-readers, or picture books to donate to children in need, and drop them off at our "Books for Free" bin on the waterfront East Terrace. These books will help stock 80+ Books for Free bookshelves across Miami-Dade, from the Juvenile Justice Center to WIC offices to Sant La Haitian Neighborhood Center, providing every child who visits these shelves with a free book to take home.
