Access Books received a grant for the purchase of books to be shared throughout Los Angeles. The mission of Access Books is to provide high interest reading material to underserved children in Los Angeles by providing low income neighborhoods with a warm and welcoming school or community library. Their purpose is to advance childhood literacy in poor schools so children will have the foundation they need to be lifelong readers and leaders.Access Books not only helps children gain access to literature, but also encourages giving by having books drives in communities were there isn’t as much need. With the help of about 50 volunteers, they can build a library in a day. Which goes on to help share the love of reading to many!
