📚 Host a Book Drive
Earn 10 Volunteer Hours | Minimum Collection: 10 New Books
Every child deserves to feel celebrated and to have a story that sparks their imagination! By hosting a book drive for The Confetti Foundation, you can help bring moments of happiness, comfort, and creativity to hospitalized children on their birthdays.
Why Books Matter
Each Confetti Foundation birthday box includes a new age-appropriate book! Books inspire imagination, provide comfort, and offer a joyful escape for children spending their special day in the hospital. Your donation helps us ensure that every child receives something meaningful to enjoy long after the party ends.
How It Works
Hosting a book drive is a meaningful way to involve your community while giving back to hospitalized children.
To earn volunteer hours, volunteers must organize an actual community book drive by asking friends, family members, classmates, coworkers, neighbors, or local businesses to donate books. Purchasing books yourself does not qualify as a completed volunteer drive for service hours. The goal is to raise awareness, encourage community involvement, and collect donations.
Collect at least 10 brand new books.
Choose age-appropriate picture books, storybooks, chapter books, and activity books. (We provide for children aged 1-18 years old) All books must be new to protect the health and safety of hospitalized children.Host your drive anywhere!
You can organize your book drive at your school, workplace, or community center…anywhere friends and families gather to give back! Prefer to start an Amazon Wishlist? Be sure to have books sent directly to us. Use our Book Wish Lists for inspiration.Ship/Drop Off your books to our headquarters.
Send all collected books to: (reminder: these MUST be NEW books)

Why It Makes a Difference
A book may seem simple, but for a child spending their birthday in a hospital room, it can become a source of comfort, imagination, and happiness. Your book drive helps create moments that feel meaningful, uplifting, and full of celebration.
By involving your community, you are not only collecting books, but you are helping spread kindness and reminding hospitalized children that people across the country care about them.
Together, we can turn hospital rooms into moments of imagination and happiness, one story at a time. 💕
