GIVE TO THE MAX 2025 HAS KICKED OFF!

This Give to the Max season, we aim to raise $10,000 to cover the increasing costs of purchasing brand-new books. A gift of any size helps us offset expenses and get more books into the hands of more people!


VOLUNTEER

Help us fulfill book requests and stay in touch with WPBP’s readers.

Donate gently used or new books or buy from our wish lists.

Help us keep the lights on and feed our hungry postage machine.

THANK YOU FROM OUR READERS

“I want to thank you all for your dedication and perseverance in helping us ‘forgotten ones’… Some people may take your endeavors for granted…. But I sincerely appreciate your support. I sit alone in a Solitary Confinement Administrative Segregation 23.5 hours a day lockdown… and books are my way outside these steel stone walls.”

“Dear Women’s Prison Book Project, thank you so much for the books. They have touched me in so many ways. They have been supportive and encouraging on my journey to help me as I go forward and grow in my spirit. I appreciate your giving and kindness.”






“All in all, you have helped me in your gifts to keep my sanity in such a crazy, chaotic place. I am forever indebted to you and yours for these gifts. I have been receiving books from you for quite some time now and feel blessed for the opportunities you have given me to expand my mind as well as my life.
