The Planned Parenthood Book Sale starts this Thursday! 60th Anniversary!

https://www.desmoinesbooksale.com/

Did you know? Proceeds from the last Planned Parenthood Book Sale helped Planned Parenthood educators host 2,600 programs that reached 40,500 teens, adults, parents, and families in Iowa!

The impact is incredible—and it’s about more than just numbers. Comprehensive sex education increases healthy relationships, lowers rates of unintended pregnancies, and decreases need for abortion. Sex education changes lives.

You can support this important work THIS WEEK by shopping the Planned Parenthood Book Sale.



The Planned Parenthood Book Sale is one of the largest single charitable events run exclusively by volunteers, not only in the state of Iowa, but in the country. Shoppers come from across the Midwest for bargain prices on thousands of used and collectible books, plus records, CDs, DVDs, games, puzzles, and artwork.
