around the world are organizing scavenger hunts from San Diego, CA to Staten Island,
New York to the Isle of Sheppey in England. Each city will encourage people to find
clues posted on Little Free Libraries (LFLs) in their neighborhoods.
The simultaneous hunts are organized by Unplug Collaborative-home to National Day of
Unplugging, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides free resources to
communities working to elevate human connection over digital engagement.
