    • Mission

    Mission: To provide books to children and ignite a passion for reading that empowers each child to explore a world of opportunity. Vision: We envision a world where all children have their own home library and become lifelong learners through the joy of reading. Our aim is to accept new and pre-loved children's books, keep them out of landfills and give them all away to children across Minnesota and beyond. We value our core belief that ALL children deserve the right to access age-appropriate books to have in their homes. We are proud of our all-volunteer organization and look forward to growing and having Free Book Buggies bookin' it across Minnesota!

    About Us

    The Free Book Buggie is a non profit that is passionate about books and sharing the love of reading with all children. Our goal is to provide age-appropriate books that show children reading is fun, allow them to dream, learn, go on adventures, and be empowered to shape their future.

    What we do:

    • collect thousands of donated books
    • sort our books by reading levels, baby up to high school chapter
    • fill the Buggie with books & travel to events across the Twin Cities
    • empower children to choose books THEY like

    • supply children's books to organizations in need
    • partner with over 300 organizations
