JANET'S CORNER

I will soon have a beautiful Grandbaby boy in my arms! I am eagerly looking forward to a wonderful vacation. During my three-week stay, I seek to be our youngest daughter's most ardent supporter and a blessing to her and our son-in-law.


I playfully told my baby (soon-to-be mommy) that her wishes would be our command for the entire visit. We both laughed, as I pretended to talk like a genie. Later, I realized we are even better than a genie because she said we can easily navigate New York City if she needs something while her husband stays with her and the baby. What a compliment and honor. We are even better than a wish-granting genie. 👩🏽👨🏾>🧞


I thank our good God for the blessing of life and the opportunity to love on my baby and her baby!


And I thank you, wonderful homeschooling families, for all your support and for giving us the blessing to know that on those wonderful occasions if needed, we can close our resource center and travel across the country to bless our now adult children.

DONATE YOUR USED BOOKS TO CHSRC

Bless fellow homeschoolers!

Donations and sales of used books are vital to the furtherance of CHSRC's mission; encouraging and equipping families for a successful homeschool journey. You may never know, in this lifetime, how your generous gifts have blessed other homeschooling families.

 

As a thank you for your donation, CHSRC will offer you a discount coupon for qualifying* used books, as well as, a tax receipt. We receive donations anytime during normal business hours. 

WHAT CHSRC NEEDS

 

The homeschool books and education items we are looking for need to be mostly current edition and in good or better than good condition (meaning no water damage, used but clean, no extreme wear, complete, etc.)

 

 The items we are in most need of are:

  • Current edition homeschool curriculum.
  • Current Edition unmarked homeschool workbooks.
  • One edition old curriculum may be accepted (one edition old, meaning if the current edition is the 4th edition, the old edition would be the 3rd edition.)
  • Miscellaneous DK or Usborn-style books.
  • Family-friendly chapter books and classics are always well-loved here at CHSRC.
  • Complete educational large-piece puzzles (Please keep in mind that the number of pieces needs to be one that our staff can easily count/verify they are complete)
  • Complete educational games that are easy for us to verify they are complete.
  • Children's books: Due to space issues we can only accept classic children's books such as Dr. Seuss, etc.
  • Vintage educational items or books in reasonably good shape may be accepted. 
  • Microscopes: In good usable condition/without need of repairs.
  • Beakers, and any chemistry/biology glass items and tools, need to be like-new/clean with no stains or residues.
  • Plastic chemistry and biology individual lab items, need to look like new. Non-discolored and clean.

 

Unfortunately, right now we do not have space for:

  • Science kits
  • Chemicals
  • Most old edition curriculum.
  • Magazines.
  • Encyclopedias
  • General books that are not homeschool/educational specific.
  • Public school curriculum.
  • Store-bought per grade level general workbooks. 

 

If you have biology specimens, please let us know in advance so we can contact our science teacher to find out if she can use them.

 

Why don't we accept donations of cassette tapes or VHS tapes?

Because we're trying to fast-forward into the future, not rewind to the past!
