Global Literacy for a Better World

Building communities one book at time

Our Vision:

Literacy is the key that opens the door to possibilities. We're helping build a better world and a better life, one book at a time.

Our vision is to create a world where every child has access to books in order to support their dreams and unlock their potential.

 

Libros del Mundo is a

non-profit foundation focused on underserved communities of color, in particular Hispanic communities. We donate new and used books to support learning in public and charter schools wherever needed.

"Books are the plane, and the train, and the road. They are the destination and the journey. They are home." 

 - Anna Quindlen
