Local high school club does book drive for PLP!

Albany High School’s chapter of Amnesty International, advocates for global human rights through campaigns, letter-writing, protests, and more! Senior and club President Anika coordinated a book drive for PLP recently and we just received 3 bagfuls of great books to send out.

Thanks much to Anika and other students in the club for taking action to support incarcerated readers.

Sending books to incarcerated people for over 40 years

Prisoners Literature Project is an inclusive, all-volunteer, grassroots nonprofit whose purpose is to encourage reading, the pursuit of knowledge, and self-determination among incarcerated people. By sending free reading materials to those behind bars, PLP aims to foster learning and critical thinking and help people prepare to lead successful lives after incarceration. We believe that all people have a right to read.

Please consider donating to the PLP or volunteering your time (if you live in the Bay Area, CA!) to help us answer letters from prisoners who write us from all over the United States.
