Books of Hope is a service-learning program where U.S. schools
sponsor a school abroad and create books to help meet the students'
educational needs. We provide teachers with information about their
sponsored school and instructional materials to help facilitate the
project. Along with writing, illustrating and binding books, schools
also have the option of collecting and sending other supplies for
their sponsored school.
Books of Hope is an ideal way to incor****ate service into practically
any unit of any classroom at any level. We encourage schools to create
books about science, math, geography, reading readiness, English
grammar, and a whole variety of other topics.
Over 30,000 students, teachers, parents and community members from
over 1000 schools across the country have been involved in the Books
of Hope program. During the 2006-7 school year, we collected over
2,500 pounds of books and next year we hope to double that.
