Irrigating Book Deserts By Spreading Book-Wealth

The BookSmiles Mission

​BookSmiles, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, gives children in Philadelphia and surrounding suburbs the opportunity to build personal libraries, starting at infancy. We focus on providing students and younger siblings with high-quality books, thereby laying the groundwork for academic success.  We also provide educators, especially those serving Title I schools, with unlimited books for their classroom libraries as well as for their students' personal collections.
Ways to Give
Picture
Your online donation to BookSmiles, a 501(c)(3), enables us gather, sort, and distribute books from the BookSmiles Book Bank. It costs us $25 to process 100 books! You can memorialize a loved one, start a mitzvah/public service project, or simply give because you believe that owning books should not be a privilege. Donate now.
