Give Today and help Captain Book inspire kids to read

“Getting books, they can keep into the hands and homes of children who need them in ways that will inspire them to read”, is and has been the mission of the Captain Book Literacy Program since its inception in 2000.

Based on a study from Science Direct, Captain Book believes that:

1. Kids with books in the home get three years more schooling than children from bookless homes

2. Kids with books in the home become better citizens

3. Kids raised with books in the home get better paid jobs and

4. Kids raised with books in the home understand the difference of good and bad

To that end, since the year 2000, the crew of Captain Book Literacy’s all-volunteer reading pirates have put books (to keep as their own), into more than 350,000 children's hands and homes in North San Diego County.
