Book ‘Em is on the mission of improving childhood literacy rates in Macon-Bibb County by delivering books to school-aged children in need via the Bibb Sheriff’s office. Partnering with the sheriff’s office is a way to help kids see law enforcement officers as friends and allies they can trust.

With over 10,000 kids in our community living below the poverty level, it is Book 'Em's goal to arm these children with books to improve literacy skills and foster a life-long love for reading.  

2 out of 5 kids are without books at home
