Books needed to help kids

Winnipeg, MB (May 9, 2023) – The Children’s Hospital Book Market is continuing to accept for new and gently used book donations to be dropped off now in preparation for the upcoming fall sale September 15-16, 2023 at St. Vital Centre. Please check goodbear.ca/events for updates.

Community members are asked to drop off books to:

• Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service stations
• Dufresne Furniture Stores in Manitoba

The spring 2023 Book Market raised over $250,000 for sick and injured kids who need HSC Children’s Hospital! Children’s Hospital Foundation and volunteers are thankful to the supportive shoppers that make Book Market a success. 

Funds raised for the Foundation at Book Market go towards the $75 million Better Futures campaign, Manitoba’s largest-ever donor-driven campaign in support of child health. The Better Futures campaign focuses on three areas of strategic priority in pediatric health care: critical infrastructure and facilities, leading-edge pediatric research on childhood illnesses, and innovative programs to bring comfort to families in hospital, like the Child Life programming the Book Market supports.
