Since 2013, Soho has donated over 500,000 quality children's books
to UVa Hospital
for sick children and their siblings. Each month, about 9,000 books are given away to children.
When Soho's donation to UVA reached 60,000 books, Soho's Book Giveaway was featured as
the Top Story in UVa's Connect Online magazine. To read the whole story, please Click Here
