August 17 is #NationalNonProfitDay, a great time to donate to the #ChildrensBookProject and help us give free books to kids who need them for literacy, learning, and life!

Since our founding in 1992, we've given away over 3,383,000 high-interest, diverse, multilingual books to under-resourced kids throughout California — and beyond. Kids who have the freedom to read are more likely to succeed, and we couldn't fulfill our mission without your support.
