Open Doors to New Worlds for Children Everywhere

Your Generosity Transforms Lives Through the Magic of Reading

At Living Libraries, we believe that every child deserves access to stories that inspire, educate, and represent them. With your support, we provide children with books, interactive experiences, and educational tools that foster a love for learning, spark creativity, and build confidence. Your contribution makes it possible for children to discover the joy of becoming a “LiLi” and connecting with others through the world of books.

What is LiLi?

Sponsor a Child

Give One Child a LiLi Kit to Unlock the World of Reading

For a donation of just $25, you can sponsor a child in need and provide them with a full LiLi Kit. Each kit includes a book, an engaging game, and a LiLi Key that unlocks a world of learning and discovery. The LiLi Key acts as a symbol of belonging, connecting children to a broader community of young readers and inspiring their journey through literacy. Your $25 donation also covers shipping, delivering joy and opportunity right to their doorstep.
