University of Delaware Athletics Department to host Book Drive prior to football game on October 15; Benefits Success Won’t Wait’s literacy programs

The University of Athletics Department will feature a book drive, culminating with a book drop off at the beginning of the University of Delaware football home game against Massachusetts on Saturday, October 15.

Fans are encouraged to bring new or gently used children’s books on their way into Delaware Stadium. There will be drop off stations at both the west side main entrance and the east side main gates. Participants will receive a free game ticket voucher to either a future regular season football game, or a men’s or women’s basketball contest and a 25% off coupon good for a general reading book at the UD Bookstore, courtesy of Barnes & Noble!

Success Won’t Wait’s offices / warehouse facility is located at 1729 Marsh Road in North Wilmington, offering donors a permanent drop off location for UD fans who are willing to participate, but unable to attend the football game on the 15th.

The Blue Hens will take on Colonial Athletic Association foe Massachusetts starting at 3:30 p.m. Be there!
