Why we exist
Textbooks and test-prep books are expensive, and for students from low-income families, going without them can mean falling behind before the school year even starts. Meanwhile, perfectly good review books pile up on shelves once a class or exam is over.
Textbooks for Tomorrow connects those two problems. We collect gently used books, sort them, and get them to students who need them, here in North Texas and around the world. Everything we offer is 100% free.
Mission statement
We believe a family's income should never decide whether a child has the books to learn. Every book we collect, and every hour a student spends tutoring a younger kid, helps close that gap.
Every donated book gets another life. We accept Princeton Review, Barron's, official AP review books, and gently used fiction and school-age books.
Proven study guides and resources that any student can use, no matter where they live or what school they go to.
Older students mentor and tutor younger ones, which builds confidence on both sides of the table.
Every student, from every background, deserves rewarding and stimulating learning that prepares them for a full social and cultural life.
We want to build thinkers, not just test-takers, with the character to make their mark on the world.
Knowledge and real-world skills that set students up for whatever field they go into.
We're run by students. We know what learners need because we're learners too.
