We Distribute Thousands of Books to Kids and Families Every Year!

To be a Mighty writer, you have to be a Mighty reader first. Since our launch in 2009, we’ve made the distribution of books to our communities a major part of our mission. We’re always looking for new or lightly used high-quality books with characters who resemble our Mighty kids and their lived experiences.

Books can be dropped off at our Mighty Writers Germantown location, 12 E. Church Lane, Philadelphia, every Wednesday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Questions about our book donation program go to Books Manager Jennifer Ailey: jailey@mightywriters.org.
