We’ll be open from 3-8 pm today for Midtown Holiday Studio Tours. Stop by and see us at 133 Millsaps ave in Jackson! Entrance is on Wilson St. Learn more about what we do, check out our work space, read letters from prisoners, and help us fill book requests if you’d like!

Our HQ will be open for Midtown Holiday Studio Tours on 12/10 from 3pm-8pm. It’s a great time to check out our space and see how you can get involved in what we do!

While we receive many wonderful donated books, we are often short on subjects that prisoners are asking for. We update our wish list as often as possible to try and keep up with demand- check it out!

Today we are celebrating the spirit of giving by packing books at our HQ in Jackson today from 5pm-7pm. Join us.

Our Giving Tuesday fundraising goal is $500- enough to send more than 125 packages of 3 books each before the holidays. You can help by sharing our campaign and giving if you are able. Huge thanks to Robin, Emily and Whitney for getting us to 30% of our goal so far!
