Give a girl a chance to keep learning
A gift today could send books to help girls keep learning, and write their own futures.
Books give people power
They provide the information and the inspiration that people like Florence, Anne and George need to build a more equal future. So we work for a world where everyone has access to books.

George in Ghana
The pandemic affected me greatly because I feel like I am behind at school, and that makes me sad.
Alfred in Kenya
A child must get an education, everybody should be educated, even that mother or that father who is at home should get an education.

Before the donation from Book Aid International, frankly, we didn’t have any books.
