Book Fairies is a wonderful organization that takes book donations and gives them to schools and other charitable organizations. They are all welcoming and friendly. I felt confident in my volunteer role after a detailed orientation. If you want to volunteer on Long Island, I highly recommend helping at Book Fairies.
