Butterfly Books™ is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting literacy for children in underprivileged communities and children with medical needs by providing complimentary books through the distribution of care packages, the establishment of little libraries in medical institutions and community centers, hosting literary events, and other book distribution methods.

Our central initiative are our events, wherein we conduct read aloud sessions and offer each attendee a book of their own to spread literacy to homes that often do not have access. We also lead craft activities to get kids excited about reading, including painting, drawing, and decoration activities. The libraries we install and supply become epicenters of academic and social connection for all children and are an invaluable asset to any youth-focused community, especially those that cannot afford to purchase their own literature. Our mission also includes providing individualized resources for each child receiving care from our partners. To support this initiative, we began our Book Bundles program, which centers around providing our partners with box sets of books and book-ish supplies to distribute individually, based on personal literary preferences. Other initiatives include Letters of Love, through which we distribute thoughtful messages from our volunteers to children in hospitals, and our Read-Aloud Archive, providing videos of children's book read-alouds. We rely on book donations to fund and supply our cause, through both direct donation and the income provided by our partner entity, HookedonBooks!. HookedonBooks! sells new and used books on Amazon, reaching a wide audience of consumers and donating 100% of its revenue to our cause.
