The Universal Reading Foundation launched the „Books Protect” campaign immediately after the outbreak of war in Ukraine. A mass of individuals and companies in Poland and around the world got involved in the project. Publishers from Ukraine did not disappoint either, rushing to donate books to Ukrainian refugees in Poland. Now is the time to build further long-term and strategically thought-out assistance, which is still and will continue to be vitally needed. Every donation means another book that goes to children and real help for Ukrainian publishers.

We invite schools, libraries and aid centers where children of refugees from Ukraine are staying to apply for free books.
Each package contains 50 books used in English, 10 books in Ukrainian and the Ukrainian edition of the book “The world is beautiful. A book against war.

Books in English were provided by the International Book Project organization, books in Ukrainian are a gift from Ukrainian publishers. The brick book was created thanks to the involvement of Polish writers and illustrators.
