We know the value of a good not-for-profit. So we've chosen to run our bookstore in a unique fashion: We may make money, but we try to give as much as possible back to the community.
We call ourselves the for-profit not-for-profit, and we think you'll understand why when you stop in and take advantage of our daily story... time, our annual literacy camps, and our strong dedication to giving back in both a monetary and practical way to the community.
