Are your bookshelves overflowing? Books For Africa is a non-profit organization that collects, sorts, ships and distributes books to children and adults in Africa. Books donated by publishers, schools, libraries, individuals and organizations are sorted and packed by volunteers who choose books that are age and subject appropriate. Books are shipped in containers paid for by contributions. It costs about 38 U.S. cents to send a book from the United States to Africa. BFA collects all kinds of fiction and non-fiction books for children and adults. For children, they prefer hard covers, but will accept paperbacks that are in good condition. For specific donation guidelines, please visit their website.
