Refugee Book Drive

River Dog Book Co. Statement:

River Dog Book Co. believes in helping people in need. Regardless of political affiliations, the reality is the refugees at the US/México border are in need of many things. As an independent bookstore, there are so many things we cannot help with, but together with our generous customers and with our colleagues in the book industry in New Mexico and across the United States, we can help provide books. Please consider helping us help them.

River Dog Book Co. is supporting the Casa Camino Real Bookstore, located in Las Cruces, New Mexico near the U.S./México border, in facilitating a Refugee Book Drive in conjunction with the American Booksellers Association (ABA).

Casa Camino Real Bookstore will disseminate books to refugee families. They will be working with the Annunciation House in El Paso, Texas, and various hospitality centers on the U.S./México Border, including The Border Servant Corps (BSC), El Calvario United Methodist Church based in Las Cruces, New Mexico, as well as various sister organizations in El Paso, Texas: Iglesia Luterana Cristo Rey directed by Pastor Rose Mary Sánchez-Guzmán, Hope Border Institute, and the Columban Mission Center.

The Refugee Book Drive needs books in Spanish for children and adults in all genres. Click on a cover below to purchase a recommended title for the Refugee Book Drive. Other Spanish language titles are also accepted.
