Books First CSR Initiatives – Transforming Lives Through Books
At Books First, we believe in the power of books to change lives. Through our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Initiatives, we work with organizations, institutions, and individuals to provide books to children and communities in need. Our goal is to foster a culture of reading and education by ensuring that every child, regardless of background, has access to quality books.
Our 2025 Commitment: 1,000,000 Books Donated
This year, we are taking a bold step towards making books accessible to as many children as possible. Our goal for 2025 is to distribute 1,000,000 books through bulk giving, ensuring that schools, libraries, and community centers receive the resources they need to build a stronger reading culture.
How We Achieve This Impact
1. Bulk Giving & Donations
We work with corporate partners, donors, and well-wishers to distribute books in large quantities to schools, libraries, and literacy programs across the country.
2. School Library Development
BooksFirst partners with educational institutions to set up and stock libraries, ensuring that students have consistent access to books that inspire and educate.
3. Community-Based Reading Programs
Through our partnerships with local organizations, we support reading clubs, mobile libraries, and literacy programs in underserved areas.
4. Employee Volunteering & Engagement
We offer corporate teams the opportunity to participate in book donation drives, storytelling sessions, and mentorship programs to actively engage in literacy promotion.
