*******OPERATION TEXTBOOK DROP********

The Veterans Resource Center (VRC) welcomes you to donate textbooks for our Veterans! After the semester or books from the prior semester, we welcome you to drop off any textbooks to help your fellow vets. Sometimes a veteran student may need a textbook to borrow in the first couple weeks of classes (while waiting for their book stipend)... you can help this vet! Many of the classes are also using ebooks or digital formats, so student may also want to have the physical book handy for the semester...your donated book can really help this vet too!

We welcome you to help our vets with Operation Textbook Drop...Bring your textbooks to donate at the VRC, which will be placed in the Lending Library and used by a student vet in need. Pass by the VRC from Mondays - Fridays between the hours of 9:00 am - 4:00 pm, except holidays, and drop them off at BS-103 (Leeward CC, Pearl City campus).
