Our guarantee is that 100% of all public donations (including credit card fees!) go directly to in-country operations. All funds are used to 1) identify and qualify potential school partners, 2) resource books and shelves, 3) build and install libraries, and 4) train students and staff to successfully run the libraries.

This is made possible through our founding members and a number of large donors. Great big thank you to you (you know who you are)!

Each year, we continue to add libraries to our existing network. Every library that is established will serve the current and future students of that school for years to come. Thus, measuring the actual number of children helped is a bit difficult. However, next year we look to open at least 100 additional libraries, which will reach over 20,000 students in their first year of opening!

Our goal is to build 1,000 libraries over the next several years. The more funds we are able to raise, the faster we will be able to expand. At this moment, we hope to build all 1,000 libraries in the next 5 years.

We are always looking for better ways to help the communities we are working in. Here are some ways we could use your help:

If you know of someone (person or organization) who has expertise in this field from whom we could learn to do things better, please connect us! You can do this on our Contact Us page.

If you are that someone who has expertise, please reach out and let’s chat!

If you have other skills (social media, fundraising, grant writing, etc.) which could be helpful for our cause, please also reach out!

If you are too busy with other things but feel to help, please consider setting up a recurring donation. You can do so here (hyperlink).

Our three core values are integrity, transparency, and strategic impact.

• Integrity – Our word and reputation matters. We will seek to do everything in our power to keep our promises to the communities we serve and our donors, regardless of who is watching. We believe this to be the only sustainable foundation for a long-term, impact-driving organization. Thanks to a number of private donors, 100% of our public donations (including credit card fees) go to in-country projects and operations to bless the people of Bangladesh.
• Transparency – To help our donors see the tremendous impact of their donations, we seek to give as much information as possible regarding our projects. Together, we are transforming and changing the lives of many—this should include the lives of our donors and project teams. We want everyone involved to know and see how, together, we are making the world a better place, one child and locale at a time.
• Strategic Impact – Lives changed > money raised. We are interested in doing good more than looking like we are doing good. Better measuring the outcomes of our involvement is very important to us. We are always interested in learning better ways of creating more impact. If you have input or insights on this, or know of someone who can help us do good better, please reach out and let’s chat.
