Who We Are
Our Mission
Our mission is to increase visibility and access to books in NYC and create and advance a culture of reading, connection, and self-empowerment by providing books through partnerships with bodegas for the individuals, families, students, and children of NYC.
Our People
Books x Bodegas was founded by teachers, a social worker, and the owner of a bodega, all lifelong learners who were inspired by our vibrancy of the communities that we serve.
