Some Information About Book Aid
- Since 1949 we have shipped over 3 million books to more than 180
countries. We now ship over 50,000 pounds of
books each year.
- None of our 40 volunteers at Darien Book Aid Plan receives any pay, except for the satisfaction of furthering the cause of
literacy around the world.
- We rely on private donations to pay for the postage to send the books.
We hold a fundraising requests in September, but accept donations any time
of year.
- Donations go for expenses that are related to the cost of shipping the books.
We never ask for any contribution from a book recipient.
