Support a great cause at Save the Children book sale

The largest second-hand book sale in Western Australia will start next week at The University of Western Australia, with proceeds used to help support children from disadvantaged communities.

The University branch of Save the Children Australia will hold its annual winter book sale in the Undercroft of UWA’s Winthrop Hall, below the clock tower, from Friday 13 August to Wednesday 18 August.

Thanks to the generosity of the UWA branch and many others offering up their second hand goods, thousands of donated books covering almost every topic imaginable will be available at discounted prices as well as sheet music, recorded music, LPs, DVDs and rare finds.

The proceeds will be used to support children in Western Australia and around the world. An army of volunteers support the branch, working throughout the year to prepare for the book sale, including UWA students from the student branch of Save the Children Australia, Uni Camp for Kids, UWA staff and families and other casual volunteers.

Anyone interested in volunteering to work at the book sale should email [email protected]while further book donations will be accepted after Monday 23 August. For inquiries call Save the Children on 9267 3900. Entry is free and EFTPOS is available for purchases.
