Bio:
Reader To Reader, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to bringing books, free of charge, to needy school libraries across the United States. It is our belief that books have a singular power to inspire and change people’s lives.

The need for books is critical, because 60% of underprivileged children do not own a single book. This makes a well-stocked school library a critical resource hub that is a necessity not a luxury. Thankfully, a simple solution lies at hand with the millions of books that are routinely discarded on an annual basis. The solution is to efficiently collect and distribute these books to needy school libraries where they can educate and inspire generations of readers.

Who We Serve:

Of primary importance to Reader To Reader are school libraries in the nation’s poorest communities, including inner-city schools, Native American Reservations, and poor rural towns, where the need for books is acute. It is our hope that through the efforts of Reader To Reader an elementary school child will discover a love for reading; a high school student with a love for drawing will see the works of the world’s greatest artists; a high school student will broaden their horizons and choose to attend college, or a college student will have the resources to delve more deeply into a subject.

Reader To Reader supplies books for all reading levels, from elementary and secondary schools to colleges and universities. These books cover a myriad of subjects ranging from literary classics, popular fiction, mysteries, science fiction, to science, history, mathematics, economics, psychology, education and myriad other subjects.
