First Book supports the largest and fastest-growing network of educators and program leaders serving children in need. In partnership with these heroic educators and organizations, First Book transforms lives by improving access to equal, quality education for all kids.
Public education and programs are deeply underfunded, and books are a luxury many families cannot afford. Without adequate resources, children cannot learn. The impact of this cycle is staggering.
We have distributed more than 170 million books and resources in 30 countries. We currently reach an average of 3 million children every year, and serve more than one out of every four classrooms and programs in need.
From best practices and resources, to expert advice, to stories of impact, First Book offers relevant information to help the communities and people we serve.
First Book’s dedicated partners deliver possibilities to educators and kids in need and bring us closer to realizing educational equity for all kids.
