Corporate Partnerships
Strong CSR Programs
Over the past twenty years, The Library Project has worked with hundreds of corporate partners to improve rural literacy in Asia. Each partnership begins with our organization listening to the corporation’s needs and crafting a CSR program that fits the company’s culture. This is a big reason why 80% of our revenue came from repeat corporate donors.
Big or Small
No matter the size of your company, small or large, you can make a difference. Our corporate donors range from United Technologies (aerospace) to Urban Soup Kitchen (local restaurant chain), showcasing the diversity of our partners. Each of them approaches CSR in a unique manner, and we celebrate this diversity. There is no “right way” to give back, there is only “your way.” We look at your company’s size, industry, history and locations . . . then we work together to create a program that fits your budget and expectations.
Financial Transparency
The Library Project is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization aiming to make every donated dollar count. We pride ourselves on financial efficiency, donor accountability, and operational transparency. Through our in-depth Annual Reports, the Library Project is an open book. It is important to us that all donors and volunteers truly understand how The Library Project spends their generous financial contributions and how our libraries benefit the children we impact. The Library Project consistently strives for 100% transparency.
Strong Programmatic Results
At The Library Project, we believe that measuring our impact is incredibly important. It provides data so that we can continually improve our programs. We also believe it is important to communicate the successes and challenges we face to those who support us. To date, we have impacted over a million children by providing access to libraries in their rural primary schools. The beautiful thing about a school library is it lives; it stays just as relevant from day one as it will ten years into the future. Because of this, new children annually gain access to these spaces, and the total impact a library has on a community grows annually.
Training is critical to the long-term success of a library donation. Teachers at rural primary schools and administrators at orphanages all receive training on managing their new library. This training course is the first day of a one-year relationship between The Library Project team that ensures each and every library we donate operates at the highest level. Training is a critical part of every library donation.
It is not enough to just provide libraries; it is critical to work directly with the children. We take the necessary time to introduce the children to their new library, talk to them about the importance of reading, and explain how each book is a window to another world. At the end of each literacy program, the children understand that this new library will be open to them and that they can check books out for overnight reading. Children are always very excited.

Reading Rooms are designed to transform the learning environment in rural elementary schools by providing access to high-quality educational resources. These vibrant spaces are equipped with colorful tables, chairs, and bookshelves, creating a welcoming and "child-friendly" area that enhances the educational experience.
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. These books entertain and promote independent learning, intellectual curiosity, and a lifelong passion for reading. We aim to inspire a new generation of readers and thinkers in underserved communities by integrating Reading Rooms into schools.

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.
