鈥淗arry Potter鈥 fans, the Harry Potter Alliance needs your help.
As we previously reported, the HPA is a nonprofit organization that uses the story of Harry and his friends as inspiration to help others. Its newest project is called Accio Books!, named after the 鈥淧otter鈥 spell that summons objects.聽
The HPA is asking fans to donate books for those who need them. According to the HPA , the selected recipients for Accio Books! are Borderline Books, which give free books in various languages to those who wouldn鈥檛 have them otherwise and which has locations in England and the Netherlands, and Kansas City鈥檚 Operation Breakthrough, one of the biggest single-site early education and social services centers in the state.
Those who want to donate can find an HPA book drive near them on the HPA website or send books directly to Operation Breakthrough or Borderline Books. Those who organize a drive can also choose to give the books to a place like a school or a library near them so as to save money on sending the books.聽
More than 9,000 books have already come in for Accio Books! and those who want to get involved have until June 2 to help the HPA reach their goal of 60,000.
