Lina Jeonseonggi Foundation "Please Send Sleeping Books"
Carrier Library Campaign in Progress
[Asia Economy Reporter Ki Ha-young] The LINA Life Social Contribution Foundation, LINA Jeonseonggi Foundation, announced on the 22nd that it is conducting the 'Carrier Library' campaign, which donates books sleeping on bookshelves by packing them into suitcases.
The Carrier Library campaign is a donation project where sponsors send books they no longer read packed in travel bags, which are then delivered to places in need. Since last month, the LINA Jeonseonggi Foundation has participated in the campaign by supporting the sponsor application platform and discovering places nationwide that need books to deliver them.
The foundation especially focused on boys and girls on the road. It donated about 1,000 books to the annex book cafe of the Southern Juvenile Probation Office and the independent living center for juvenile offenders, delivering books to mid- to long-term youth shelters nationwide. The wheels of the carrier also reached the forest library in Pyeongchang, Gangwon-do, village bookstores for rural children in Mungyeong, Gyeongbuk, a small library in the island village of Ulleungdo, and Jeju Olle Trail.
The foundation plans to extend the Carrier Library to the Small Library Project, which builds libraries at schools and orphanages in Cambodia.
