Background
The GNOPS Book Fair is a community project to celebrate the Greater New Orleans Pediatric Society’s 50 years of making a difference in the lives of the children in Greater New Orleans. Together we are collecting gently used and new books for children of all ages (0-17 years old) to benefit Kingsley House. Kingsley House's mission is educating children, strengthening families and building community. Founded in 1896, the New Orleans social service agency is focused on early-intervention programs that increase the capacity of their participants and enhance the quality of their lives.
Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Janna Pecquet, GNOPS Executive Director, at 504-841-0145 or janna@gnops.org.
