The Problem

The Prison Library Project aims to enrich lives through education and provide opportunities for academic insight for those who are incarcerated and need a new beginning.

Plan of Action

The plan is and always has been to provide educational materials for those incarcerated persons who need it most. At the project there is an extensive library of books that are continuously donated to the program, including religious pieces, popular fictions, non-fiction, art, history, etc. We send these books out by request of the prisoners by wrapping them, and applying postage, then mailing them at the local post office. The only major concern for the project is receiving postage as postage fees have increased drastically in the last few years. That is the only serious need at this time.
