Another slogan on a board? Your support makes it real.
In 2023, we anticipate over 14,000 requests from people in prisons and jails across the US. They may have few – if any – other ways of accessing books for education, personal growth, or companionship.
We want to take a moment to thank all of you who continue to make our mission a reality. We couldn’t do any of this without you.
What can your donation do?
$25 pays postage to send two pounds of books each to six people.
$100 pays postage for almost an entire day of requests.\
$500 pays to mail dictionaries (our #1 request!) to 100 people.
We’re a 501(c)3 non-profit. Donate by December 31 if you’re itemizing your deductions for 2022.
On behalf of all the inmates who write to us: Thank you.
