The Non-Profit Center, 89 South St (near South Station), Boston, MA 02111
Do you have books you’d like to donate to a great cause? Let us find
your books a new home. It’s about literacy, not landfill!
Prison Book Program & City Mission Society are joining forces for the
5th year in a row to make it easier than ever for gently-used books to
benefit others by presenting “The Great American Book Drive.”
Prison Book Program exists for one purpose –> to send free books to
prisoners. We’ve been doing it since 1972. PBP gives books to
individual prisoners in the United States. Prisoners have limited
access to educational materials and we provide them with free books
for personal development during incarceration. We do so because
education is a powerful tool that reduces the likelihood that a
prisoner will return to the prison system.
As a 501(c)(3) organization, all donations are tax-deductible to the
fullest extent of the law.
Choose to support re-use, help educate prisoners, and promote social
justice by donating your gently-used books!
For more information about the Drive or for details about how to run a
“pre-drive”, please visit our website @

Can’t make the date? The Non-Profit Center will be accepting advance
book donations from 7am-7pm (weekdays only) from Tuesday, October 25th
- Friday, November 4th.
