Our Approach
Book Fairs
With the Barkley’s Bookshelf book fair, we bring the books to you! Volunteers curate books by age and genre to provide a variety of popular titles from which young readers select books to keep forever. We partner with Title 1 schools and nonprofits such as the Hope Centers, Boys & Girls Country, and Cy-Fair Helping Hands for book distribution through book fairs.
Book Bundles and Bookshelves
Some of our partners request books because they are not able to host book fairs for their clientele for a variety of reasons. With our book bundle and bookshelf programs, books are selected by age and reading level as requested by the recipient nonprofit based on their client’s needs. We have a partnership delivering book bundles to Gracewood and we stock bookshelves monthly at Camp Hope.
Summer Reading Program
Our Summer Reading Program provides books for students lacking reading materials outside of school. In collaboration with our community partners, we register students and provide them with five books of their choice. Young readers can select from a list of popular titles, including bilingual options. Along with a sturdy tote bag for book storage and a bookmark, books are mailed directly to the recipients.
