The Children's Book Bank is a brand that is dedicated to promoting child literacy, encouraging family bonding, and sparking curiosity through the power of books. They accept both new and gently used book donations, which are then cleaned and sorted by volunteers. These books are then redistributed to children in the community who are in need.

Studies have shown that having books at home and being read to as a child are crucial indicators of future academic success. The Children's Book Bank offers various opportunities for individuals and groups to get involved in their mission through volunteering. Additionally, they also accept monetary donations, which help in providing children with meaningful and relevant books.

The Children's Book Bank is based in Portland, Oregon, and can be contacted at (503) 616-3981 or bookbank@smartreading. org
