Buy A Book, Build A Park

As if the thirst for knowledge isn’t reason enough, you now have an even better reason to buy a book!

If you use this coupon at ANY Borders Bookstore in the United States or online on September 15th and 16th, you will help create a beautiful space in a community that deserves one — the Reagan Park neighborhood in Indianapolis.

The Indianapolis chapter of Architecture for Humanity is teaming with Borders Bookstore to raise funds and awareness to the Reagan Park pocket park project, a lot at the corner of 23rd and Guilford Streets which will be transformed into a wonderful gathering place thanks to AFH Indy and Borders as well as other partners and sponsors. The permanent park will be primarily constructed with materials gathered, built or donated in conjunction with PARK(ing) Day 2010.

That PARK(ing) Day event will take place in Indianapolis on Friday, September 17th, in front of the downtown Borders Bookstore at the corner of Meridian and Washington Streets. AFH Indy and its partners will transform public parking spaces into an urban park for a day, before permanently re-installing it in Reagan Park the following day.

And no matter where you are, you can help this project on September 15th and 16th… simply by using this coupon to purchase a book (or two!). Remember, the more books sold, the more materials for the park — so forward it along on Facebook and in email.
