We use a Japanese platform to process credit card donation, called "Congrant." Please note that "Ark Anywhere Book Reading Team" is the direct translation of our name in Japanese language (アークどこでも本読み隊). Congrant primarily is built for Japanese readers, and uses automatic translation to display in English. We, Bookworm Foundation, cannot modify the translated text. Your understanding is highly appreciated!
Do you have picture books you no longer need? We are always looking for books in good condition for readers of all ages. Here are the types of books we accept:
■ Books in Thai: We gladly accept all genres, with the exception of school textbooks and back issues of magazines.
■ Books in English: To make these accessible to our Thai-speaking readers, our volunteers translate the text by hand and add it into the books. This process takes a great deal of time and effort, so we no longer accept books in languages other than Thai, apart from special-effect books (see below).
■ Special-effect books: We welcome books in any language if they include features such as pop-ups, textures (touch-and-feel), or built-in sounds/music. These are difficult to find in Thailand, yet they are highly engaging for children discovering the joy of reading as well as for children with special needs.
Books can be expensive, and many families find them hard to afford. To remove this barrier, we offer free memberships so families can borrow from our collection. Our library now serves over a thousand members, who are always excited to discover new titles.
Do you live in Thailand, and want to work with local people? Do you have special skills such as teaching, graphic design, marketing or creative writing, and are thinking of contributing to the society?
Bookworm is open to volunteer staff with ideas and motivation at any time from any part of the world. Our journey and learning process is always ongoing! Please join us to make a change in your unique way!
We are looking for volunteers from both in and outside of Thailand. We also occasionally post opportunities on Idealist. Don't forget to check out Volunteer Work Thailand for other volunteering organisations across Thailand.
