Read4Unity x Little Free Library Partnership

Weโ€™re proud to share the incredible momentum of Read 4 Unity x Little Free Library โ€” and our exciting plans for whatโ€™s next!

Since starting our partnership in 2023, we have installed 52 Little Free Library Impact Libraries across Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and New York in historically underserved โ€œbook desertโ€ communities. These libraries are co-stewarded by 13 incredible nonprofit site partners, who maintain and promote the libraries right where children and families live, learn, and play.

๐Ÿ“š Impact so far:

6,000+ brand-new, culturally representative books distributed

3,000+ Kโ€“8 readers served, with many books by BIPOC authors

12+ community literacy events hosted to celebrate books, culture, and belonging

With strong roots and proven impact, weโ€™re now expanding this model throughout South Georgia โ€” a region deeply affected by poverty and limited access to books. In partnership with local governments, nonprofits (like the YMCA), schools, and volunteers, weโ€™re bringing Little Free Libraries to everyday spaces like apartment complexes, childcare centers, and barbershopsโ€”making diverse books as easy to reach as the corner store.

๐Ÿ“– Our 2025 goal: Place 20 new libraries and distribute 2,000 diverse books in South Georgia communities by December 31, 2025.

๐ŸŒŸ These libraries are more than just boxesโ€”they are community anchors that promote literacy, spark curiosity, and affirm identity.
