READY TO MAKE A POSITIVE CHANGE AND SUPPORT GLOBAL LITERACY? Join the ALP community where Global Literacy Champions are making a concerted effort to put illiteracy in the history books. We are a growing community of changemakers in North America and Africa who love books. Through the African Library Project, you can support and positively impact whole communities and young learners of rural and underserved areas of Sub-Saharan Africa. 

donate books

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.

volunteer your time, enthusiasm, skill, and knowledge

ALP is a growing organization that relies on volunteers to help operate its book drive and library program. These operative roles, managing containers and liaising with in-country Partners, are imperative to our success, and a fantastic opportunity for those looking for a longstanding impactful role.
