Since 2008, The Children’s Book Bank has provided free books & literacy programs to children across Toronto.

HOW IT WORKS

The Children’s Book Bank operates drop-in community literacy spaces that are open to all children, teens, and their families. These spaces offer free literacy programs and a wide selection of free books for visitors to choose from.

We also host free visits to our spaces for schools, daycares and summer camps.

OUR STORY

The Children’s Book Bank was founded in 2008 by a small group of dedicated individuals who saw the importance of ensuring that all children have access to books.

Since then, The Children’s Book Bank has distributed over 1.7 million books across Toronto.
