ABOUT BOOKS FOR
COLLIER KIDS

Books for Collier Kids is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) dedicated to ensuring every
child in Collier County has books at home to read, keep and cherish; books that
help them succeed in school and in life!


THE NEED IS GREAT . . . 

Since literacy is one of the best predictors of a child’s future success, access
to books in the home not only allows children to bond with loved ones, but helps
address critical issues related to literacy.






THANKS TO OUR MANY PARTNERS

We are grateful to our community partners who help us meet our mission of
ensuring all children have access to books.




WE ARE MAKING AN IMPACT IN OUR COMMUNITY. JOIN US.

“The little trees need water every day to help them grow. Their branches reach
up high because of thirsty roots below. If we all show the beauty and importance
of the trees, then we can make a difference – REALLY! It will be a breeze.” ~
Anna Smithers in “Tree Full of Wonder”

Like the small saplings mentioned in the quote above, children require daily
nourishment of body, mind and spirit, so 140,000+ new books annually for Collier
kids ensure pre-k, kindergarten, first and second grade students have the
essentials to flourish.
