Illiteracy is one of the greatest disabilities afflicting people in our world today. Lack of education imprisons people in a vicious cycle of poverty and hopelessness.
Books for Life shares the joy of reading and learning with people in developing countries. We do this through a people-to-people movement that helps to establish libraries and learning centers, provide books, and develop educational materials. Books for Life has helped spread education and hope in India, Pakistan, Ethiopia, Kenya, Senegal, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, and Nicaragua.
Books for Life is an educational branch of the nonprofit movement Trees for Life. The Trees for Life organization believes when a few dedicated people work toward one common goal, something extraordinary happens. The combination of their diverse skills creates a force that can move mountains. They use that force to empower people in developing countries.
