What We Do
Promising Pages is The Charlotte Area Book Bank! Our mission is to collect new and donated books and share them with children living in the Charlotte Area Book Desert: those with few, if any, books at home. We work to create a culture of book sharing and ownership. Promising Pages envisions a world where all children have home libraries of self-selected books, can see themselves reflected in the books they read, and have made reading a joyful habit for a lifetime.
Interesting Info
- We've shared more than 1.8 MILLION books since 2012, and look forward to reaching 2 million in the spring of 2025!!
- During the 2023-2024 school year we collected and distributed over 290,000 books that were shared with more than 62,000 children.
- 25 By '25: We're working to provide a home library of 25 books to each household in the Charlotte-area book desert by 2025.
