Free books by authors of colour for those who cannot afford them
“Books can help us understand our place in the world, they can be our escape and they can be our home. Everyone deserves the chance to read books that they love.”
— Sofia Akel, Founder of The Free Books Campaign
About Us
The Free Books Campaign is a non-profit, community interest company dedicated to getting books by authors of colour to those who cannot afford or access them.
How It Works
If you cannot afford a book, all you have to do is email us to request one! The campaign is built on trust and you will never be asked to prove your financial situation.
* Please note, we are currently not taking new requests *
Support Us
We are entirely funded by generous donations from the public, without your support we would not be able to get new books into homes across the UK. So far we have donated 800 books!
