our one million mission

Provide 1,000,000 free books by 2030

We're on a mission to transform an old school bus into a rolling treasure trove of knowledge and imagination—a community literacy mobile and library that will make literature accessible to all, right in our local communities. With your help, we aim to deliver 1,000,000 free books by 2030 through community literacy events and our Building Home Libraries (BHL) delivery program!

🌟 Why We Need Your Support 🌟

Imagine the power of a bookmobile, where the joy of reading can reach every corner of our town. But this project isn't just about books; it's about promoting diversity, culturally relevant pedagogy, representation, and uplifting underserved communities.

🚌 Our Vision 📖

“Our vision is a community where the transformative power of literature knows no boundaries. We envision a Gainesville, FL, where every child, every family, and every individual has the opportunity to explore, learn, and grow through the magic of books. We see a future where our bookmobile becomes a beacon of knowledge, diversity, and inclusivity, bridging gaps and fostering a lifelong love for reading. Together, we aspire to create a brighter, more literate tomorrow, one book at a time."

📚 Bring Free & Affordable Books: We believe everyone should have access to quality literature, regardless of their income. Our mobile library will offer free & affordable books to foster a love for reading in every home. (All proceeds from sold books at fundraising events, goes towards furthering our one million mission.)

🌍 Cultivate Diversity: We're committed to reflecting the rich tapestry of our community. Our collection will embrace stories from various cultures, backgrounds, and voices, ensuring everyone can see themselves in the pages of a book.

🏫 Empower Education: We will partner with local schools and organizations to host educational events and book clubs, empowering young minds to learn and grow.
