Books from the Start

Literacy starts at the beginning.  We are partnering with several programs to provide curated books for pregnant or parenting teenagers in the Philadelphia School District.  Reading to infants fosters bonding, language skills, and cognitive development.

Community Corner

We support community organizations throughout the city to create literacy-rich spaces, programs and events. Are you in need of books for your event, school, organization, or community? Please reach out!

BOOK REQUEST

Phila Department of Public Health Hubs

We provide a bookshelf and diverse books to each of the five community hubs of the Philadelphia Department of Public Health.

Recharge Playspace

Phila Police Department Recharge PlaySpaces

The Philly Book Bank partners with Literacy and More, another local nonprofit organization, to place a Recharge PlaySpace in Philadelphia Police Department Districts, providing books and a child-friendly space to support any child visiting there, for whatever reason. Welcome to Recharge Playspace!

Vocational Experiences

The Book Bank works with the Special Education Department at MLK High School (School District of Philadelphia) to provide vocational skills training to prepare students for life beyond the school setting.
