Project Book is a non-profit public charity dedicated to promoting literacy and education. 

 

We are a very focused organization, staffed totally by volunteers where every book we receive supports one or more of the activities described below. Our primary goal is to help incarcerated young people earn Associates' Degrees. Please read about our Prison Project.

  • We convert surplus and donated books to cash which we then donate to the Associate's Degree program at the Rhode Island Adult Corrections Facility.  The program is operated by the Community College of Rhode Island. And, despite some inherent challenges the program has experienced significant success.  Please learn more about the success of this program and how we convert your books to money by clicking on Prison Project.

 
  • In these times of economic difficulty and fiscal shortages many communities have been forced to reduce their support for local libraries.  Some libraries have actually closed! Project Book donates books to libraries to be used in their book sales.  Funds raised through these sales are typically used to purchase museum passes and ancillary items that are not possible to be purchased through the libraries' operating budgets.
 
 
  • Project Book donates numerous books to programs that run special sales in conjunction with community based non-profit organizations that enable the organizations to raise much needed funds. Our efforts have helped school libraries, scouting organizations, assisted living homes, churches, The Salvation Army, Big Sisters, etc.

All Donations Are Tax-Deductable
