Parent Literacy Training, Monitoring, and Ongoing Support
The Library Project provides comprehensive training for parents at each literacy bag donation. We see this as essential to every donation.
Our parent training course focuses on properly managing a new home library and ensuring it stays in good condition. It provides parents with ways to use books in their homes and educates them on creating a literacy system for their children to read at home.
Where We Donate Literacy Bags
The Home
Recognizing the importance of the home environment in a child’s literacy development, The Library Project offers Literacy Bags to families. These resources encourage reading and learning at home, focusing on engaging children and their parents. We provide training for parents to effectively utilize these materials and foster a supportive reading culture at home. By empowering parents with the tools and knowledge to support their children’s education, we help create a positive and proactive learning environment. Our initiative ensures that learning continues beyond school and community settings, reinforcing the importance of literacy in everyday life.
Orphanages
Orphanages face unique challenges in providing consistent educational opportunities for children. The Library Project addresses this by donating Literacy Bags filled with high-quality books in the local language and conducting literacy programs tailored to the needs of these settings. We also provide training for administrators to ensure the sustainable use of the libraries and encourage reading among the children. Through our efforts, we strive to create a nurturing learning environment that supports children’s educational and emotional development in orphanages.
Elementary Schools, Kindergartens & Community Centers
In most cases, The Library Project partners with elementary Schools, kindergartens, and community centers to distribute Literacy Bags to students and families. Because of these strong partners, we can keep our program costs low.
Program Costs
At The Library Project, we are committed to transparency in our operations. We ensure that every dollar donated is utilized effectively to give children the gift of literacy. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or would like a detailed proposal.

In these Reading Rooms, students have access to a curated selection of engaging children’s books specifically chosen to spark their imagination and foster a love of reading.

Reading Corners equips each classroom with a dedicated selection of high-quality STEAM books covering Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math. By situating libraries directly within the classroom, we ensure that students and teachers have effortless access to essential resources.
These specialized libraries empower teachers by providing supplementary materials that enhance their lesson plans. Similarly, students benefit from the convenience of accessing books right at their desks—whether during breaks, before school, or after classes. The presence of a classroom library grants students immediate access to compelling and educational books in their language. This setup supports independent learning and intellectual curiosity and fosters a lasting enthusiasm for reading. Through Reading Corners, we aim to ignite students’ passions and broaden their academic horizons in critical STEAM disciplines.
