Residents at Waverly Heights in Gladwyne, a nationally accredited, nonprofit Life Plan Community, has collected and donated over 1,000 books to the Treehouse Books nonprofit.

The drive, which is currently in its third year, was organized by the Waverly Heights Diversity Committee.

“We are energized by the continued participation by residents and staff in our third annual Book Drive,” said Grace Bregman, Waverly Heights Resident Services and Programs Manager and co-chair of the Diversity Committee. “Our community has a strong culture of giving back and the Diversity Committee is always looking for ways to contribute to those in need.”

She added that the initiative “to enrich the learning of children and adults through Treehouse Books” aligns perfectly with Waverly Heights’ commitment “to lifelong learning for its residents.”

Founded in 2005, Treehouse Books is a giving library and literacy center with a mission of growing and sustaining a vibrant community of readers, writers, and thinkers in North Philadelphia.

The nonprofit aims to ensure that every child has access to a variety of free books as well as opportunities to fulfill their dreams while at the same time exploring their passions.
