Baird Hosts Book Drive to Support Penfield’s Young Readers

We’re incredibly grateful to the team at Baird for hosting a children’s book drive to benefit the kids and families at Penfield Children’s Center! As part of a recent compliance team ice cream social, team members were invited to bring in new or gently used children’s books to donate—then the team enjoyed delicious ice cream sundaes. The event was a sweet success, collecting more than 130 books!

Kyle and Felicia from Baird personally dropped off the donation, helping stock the shelves of our Penfield Lending Library. This library is a free resource for our children and their families, offering access to books they can take home, read together, and build a love of learning that lasts a lifetime.

If your company, team, or group is looking for a meaningful and fun way to give back, consider hosting a book drive for Penfield. It’s a simple but powerful way to support early literacy and help families build strong foundations for the future. Reach out to us to learn more about how to get started!

We’d also like to give a special shout-out to Kyle—who helped make this book drive happen and is the husband of our very own marketing coordinator, Cindy. We love seeing the Penfield community grow through connections like these!
