Books For Overseas Youth - Humanitarian Project
People to People DE has decided to sponsor a new humanitarian project. The goals of this project are to prevent books from libraries, schools, and homes going into Delaware's landfills and to provide non-fiction books to teachers and youth all around the globe who wish to learn English. As a global language, English functions as a way in which the peoples of the world can share their ideas, values, and hopes for a better future. We in People to People Delaware can fulfill our People to People mission to promote understanding by helping people to learn English well enough to discuss issues to bring about peace.
If you wish to get involved in this project, you may do so in several ways:
- Try to find NON-fiction books in English (beginning level to middle school level)
- Select books that have no political or religious content
- Try to find books for teaching English as a second language
- Help store, pack and send boxes
- Provide funds for shipping books to other countries
- Offer storage facility

Special Mention: The Books for Overseas Youth Project has been assisted by individuals and groups who have generously donated time in collecting books and rasing funds to send the books overseas. We would like to thank the Latin American Law Student Association of Widener University for their recent collection of funds and Spanish books to send down to schools Panama.
