Donate a LGBTQ+ Book!

Pay-it-forward program for
LGBTQ+ books

(Inspired by Second Star to the Right in Denver, CO)
 

Our shop will have a basket with books that have been pre-purchased by our community to give away to youth who can't access books with LGBTQ+ characters. 


How it works: Anyone can stop by the store and take a book from this basket, no questions asked. 
How to donate: Place an order on our website or stop by the store (see below for suggested titles), and we will add the purchased book to our LGBTQ+ basket!

 

Have questions or recommedations? Feel free to email us: info@thequeensbookshop.com
