Partners:

Stride Inc. is a nationally recognized business for integrated employment of adults with special needs. These talented individuals lovingly pack and prepare GGAB products for distribution.
The passing of The Community Solar Act, Bill SB84, was a significant win for not only the citizens of Albuquerque but also the state of New Mexico. Affordable Solar selected GGAB as the namesake of a 35-acre solar farm- "The Global Give-A-Book Community Solar Project.”
Ensuring every child has an equal opportunity at success continues with the ongoing support of our partners. Thank you!

A Note From Our Founder:

As we approach the end of another impactful year at Global Give-A-Book, I am filled with gratitude for the unwavering support of our community, partners, and dedicated team.

Together, we have made significant strides in promoting youth literacy and providing quality books to underserved children. As we bid farewell to 2023, let's continue our journey to empower the next generation through the magic of reading.

Thank you for being an ongoing part of GGAB's mission!
