Get Involved
Make a positive change and support global literacy today!
Donate Today!
Our grassroots approach mobilizes volunteers in North America to collect and donate gently used books and an international network of partners in Africa.
ALP’s book drive approach allows North Americans the ability to share their love for reading by providing books to fellow learners that do not have the same access to children’s books.
Organize a Book Drive
Organize a book drive and make a lasting impact by giving the gift of books. Our approach matches book drives directly with the recipient to create a library, so you’ll know exactly who is benefiting from your book drives. This opportunity is available to anyone who lives in North America.
Donate Towards International Shipping
By contributing to international shipping, you play a vital role in supporting the creation of libraries across sub-Saharan Africa.
Your donation helps cover the cost of shipping books from a port in New Orleans to destinations throughout Africa. Every shipment brings thousands of books closer to the hands of students, teachers, and community members who need them most.
