Our Mission

Every year, The Book Truck gives thousands of free books to foster care and low-income teens throughout Los Angeles. Our programming is designed to encourage even the most reluctant readers: we carry the books that teens want the most and staff our truck with a diverse group of trained teen volunteers who make informed book recommendations to their peers and help them select the "right" book. Our mission is to break the cycle of poverty by increasing literacy skills among underserved teens.
