As GivingTuesday is coming to an end, we want to thank our entire community for your contributions and involvement to helping propel our mission and vision into the future. Our impact grows more powerful every year. Each container, library and book that has made its journey across the Atlantic Ocean, holds many new opportunities that would otherwise not be realized without our community.

We look forward to striving to create 330 new libraries in 2023. You can always support this goal by giving a gift to the African Library Project. In addition to one-time donations, there is an option to setup a recurring donation. There are various frequencies available to choose from. This recurring donation options allows you to spread your donation out while supporting literacy throughout the year.

A recurring gift of $22 per month grants the shipment of one library from New Orleans to a partnering country in Africa. 

About GivingTuesday

GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

Join the movement and give – each Tuesday and every day – whether it’s some of your time, a donation, or the power of your voice in your local community.

It’s a simple idea: whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving some of what we have to those who need our help, every act of generosity counts and everyone has something to contribute toward building the better world we all want to live in.

Don't forget that our fundraising goal between today and the end of the year is $65,000. With the launch of our Literacy Champions, you will be officially welcomed as part of our tribe that is united to strengthen a systematic change in literacy on the continent of Africa, one library at a time. 

Every young person deserves a chance to grow up with books and the brighter future they offer. Your donation makes you a part of our story and a Literacy Champion. Donate today before 11:59 pm to particiate in the global generosity movement that is GivingTuesday.
