Books & Beyond is an initiative to drive recycling and reuse of all kinds of resources related to
Education. The
initiative started off with collections of books for existing as well as new libraries being set
up by Education
societies and NGOs across the country, with a purpose to promote literacy, and the joy of
reading among disadvantaged
children. The books donations have come from students across schools. The initiative is now
extended to books for
adults, to help inculcate a reading habit across age groups. We encourage communities to give a
second life to their
books and bring knowledge and inspiration to those who need it most.
We now help with several other resources required by schools run by NGOs – stationery,
notebooks, and even clothes,
handbags and footwear, for older kids working as interns in offices and schools. We continue to
participate in the “Joy
of Giving” events of corporates.
