About Adopt A Book

Adopt-a-Book Founders

Adopt A Book is a 501(c)3 non-profit

These two book-loving twins, Hannah and Alexander were inspired to start Adopt A Book in November 2011, when they were just 8 years old after they heard about kids in the Greater Cincinnati area who didn’t own books of their own. To date, they have donated over 255,000 books to over hundreds of organizations, schools and programs serving children in need.

Many of the kids that receive their books have never been to a library, don’t have access to a library or have ever owned a book of their own.

Mission Statement

Adopt A Book is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing at-risk kids with books of their own.

 

Vision Statement

Adopt A Book is to foster literacy and a love of reading by distributing books to disadvantaged children.
