Our Vision

To enable critical thinking in all citizens
and ensure universal quality education, especially for all the children of India.

Our Mission

“Share A Book” started as a neighborhood campaign in 2016 to make sure that reading books in school for pleasure isn't considered a luxury but a necessity! Registered in 2020, we have since grown into a national-level organisation with a simple motto to enable each child to read, imagine and grow to her fullest potential.

We are determined to revolutionize education through the process of reading, as we believe that it is the only instrument, which can empower children by simultaneously making learning easier, enhancing creativity, reducing dropout rates, and eradicating social evils like child labour, child marriage etc.
