A Book for Every Child is a year-round London Public Library program, established in 1992, with an annual campaign during November and December. Books are distributed to children, who would otherwise not own a book, through agencies serving families and children. A Book For Every Child promotes awareness of the importance of books in a child’s life, supports family literacy and has a direct and lasting impact on children in our community. The A Book For Every Child campaign distributes new books to local children through agencies that work with families in our community.
Every year many people make the campaign a success: generous Londoners who donate to the campaign, Library staff, staff at local book stores, and Friends of the London Public Library volunteers.
