Books to Prisoners
Books to Prisoners is a Seattle-based nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting literacy and education for incarcerated individuals by providing free books through a mail service. Founded in the early 1970s, the organization has become one of the largest and oldest prison book projects in the United States, sending tens of thousands of books annually to support self-empowerment and the pursuit of knowledge among prisoners nationwide.
The organization relies on community donations and a dedicated group of volunteers who fulfill book requests, package shipments, and sort incoming donations. In addition to its primary mission, Books to Prisoners actively fights against restrictive prison policies regarding reading and access to literature, aiming to bridge the gap between incarcerated individuals and the transformative power of books.
