Show Notes

Chase H. and his brother were pre-teens hanging out at their Mom's office when they stumbled upon boxes of children's books that were going to be destroyed. They decided to take those books and get them into the hands of children and librarians who needed them. They created an organization devoted to recycling and other environmental issues called EcoBrothers. Their book recycling program is called Read.Repeat.
