Volunteer Time and Talents
Volunteers are the heart and soul of our program! Volunteering is great way to help Books for a Better World achieve our mission. Volunteers serve in a variety of functions, but are most needed in fundraising, marketing and acting as BBW Ambassadors in our host countries. Each summer our volunteers deliver books, read to children and share their love for reading with eager children and teachers. Whether you offer a few hours or a few days a month, your investment in Books for a Better world will help us to inspire, motivate and empower children through books.
Books for a Better World is a 501(c)(3) and a Guide Star Certified nonprofit. We strive to keep administrative overhead at a minimum. Currently BBW is an all-volunteer organization. Most volunteers who deliver books pay their own way and typically stay with host families, keeping the costs at a minimum.
