Books to Prisoners is a Seattle-based nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering a love of reading among incarcerated individuals and breaking the cycle of recidivism. Founded in the early 1970s, it is one of the largest and oldest prison book projects in the country, mailing tens of thousands of free books annually to prisons across the United States.

The organization relies on community donations of books and the efforts of dedicated volunteers who help fulfill book requests and promote literacy as a means of self-empowerment and education. By engaging with departments of correction and advocating for prisoner literacy, Books to Prisoners plays a crucial role in addressing unjust prison policies and expanding access to literature for those behind bars.
