BlackRock Hosts Book Drive to Honor Team Member’s Memory

Earlier this year, Success Won’t Wait was contacted by BlackRock’s Wilmington, Delaware office about a special book drive. The team had recently lost a cherished colleague and chose to honor her memory, and her love of reading, by hosting a book drive to benefit our organization.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of BlackRock’s employees, the drive resulted in more than 400 books collected for Success Won’t Wait’s upcoming literacy projects. These will be distributed throughout Delaware and the tri-state area to high-need locations, including underfunded after-school programs, senior centers, and community organizations.

Many thanks to the entire BlackRock team, with a special thank you to Shelly Bomba, Vice President of BlackRock OPS Client Engagement, for coordinating such a wonderful tribute.
