Book Aid International: now more than ever, books are a lifeline

That is why at Book Aid InternationalSupplies much-needed books to developing countries, raising funds from publishers and general public; 'Reverse Book Club' is masterly idea-for just £5 ($10) month you can provide 48 books to go to where they're most needed we work to give all people - and especially children facing the greatest barriers to reading and learning - access to inspiring and rich book collections. Every year we provide over one million brand new books to schools, libraries, refugee camps, prisons and hospitals worldwide. Two thirds of those books are for children, and they are all donated to us by UK publishers.

Over 160 publishers support us by donating brand new books which our partners tell us again and again are a lifeline for people who would otherwise have few or no chances to read. With publishers' support we are determined to offer the opportunity to read to many more children and young people in the years to come - particularly when war devastates lives.
