Why have we created Used Books New Start? The answer is simple. Founder, Adam Hill, is a successful Vancouver based entrepreneur who has recognized a great deal of his accomplishment to education and the books that he has read which impacted his life in very positive ways.

Adam has undertaken an education program called Landmark Education and part of his curriculum includes taking on a community project that touches, moves and inspires him and others in his community. The reasons he chose this community project stem from an appreciation of what literacy and access to books provided him in his life and career.

• Do you remember the most impressionable books that you have read?
• Did they give you access to a new perspective in life?
• Did they enable you to be empowered with new knowledge and skills?
• Did the books you learnt from enable you to do more in your life?

Now, imagine the possibilities if everyone could read! It would only take a few people in each community throughout the world to gain education and access to helpful books to be able to create powerful leaders who can end global illiteracy and poverty. Our next global leader could be a possibility through our literacy support.

For those of us who can read, Used Books New Start is our way to give back and to support the less fortunate people who are unable to read or get access to books that may change their lives in the most remarkable ways.

We encourage you to consider what powerful impact you could make by donating the books you have at home that no longer serve the purpose for what they were intended – to be read! Register your support for Used Books New Start today!
