Our Mission
Napa Bookmine Literary Foundation believes in equal access to books for all.
Reading at grade level by third grade is the number one predictor of high school graduation and career success. We work to set children up for success by providing FREE books to kids, families, and teachers in our community.
Books + Kids = Empowerment!

Our Guiding Principles
Community
We build stronger communities by investing in each other. We donate books to kids, families, and schools throughout the Valley to ensure all kids have access to the books they want to read.
Access
Everyone deserves access to books, but not everyone has the same access to books. We remove the barriers to book ownership by giving books away to kids, families, schools, and community programs for free!
Connection
Fostering connections between children and authors brings the reading and writing process alive. We partner with authors from around the world to bring diverse stories to life in classrooms throughout the Valley.
Diversity
Books serve as windows to the world. We want to make sure every child can see themselves reflected in the pages of the books they read, and explore as many new worlds and ideas as they can.
