Each year, Literature for Life, a registered charitable organization, hosts its annual book sale. This year, over 1,000 books of all titles and genres will be sold at only $1 each with proceeds contributing to Literature for Life programming that benefits young mothers aged 14-29 and their children.

Based on the belief of mother as child’s first teacher, Literature for Life’s programs assist lone parent young mothers to increase literacy and social skills plus develop the capacity necessary to be employed, self-sufficient and to be effective parents.

This year’s sale will be held in the young, vibrant, family-concentrated area of midtown Toronto on Sunday, August 15, between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. at 28 Glengrove Ave W. rain or shine.
