Book Donation Program

If you are a school librarian or a Principal in a low-income country or region of the world, you can request a free one year subscription to our award-winning magazine, a set of about 50 back issues of our magazine or a box of children's books (mostly in English). Each year, we donate over a thousand books and back issues of Skipping Stones to schools and libraries. Please send your request on a school or library letterhead.

We request that, if possible, recipients send us a donation to cover the postage costs. The reading material and handling is free but the postage runs around $30 to $50 for the M Bag (Surface rate) for the box weighing between 30 to 50 pounds. That's the cheapest way to send reading material.

If you are a Peace Corps volunteer, we suggest that someone you know in the US (e.g. your family or friends) can cover the postage for the shipment. If you have access to email, please communicate with us by email for faster service.
