Books From Bobby Inc. is a nonprofit organization co founded in March 2013 by a mother and her twelve year old son, Bobby. In January of 2013, Bobby volunteered for an international organization that served children in Africa. When he discovered that most children in Africa did not own books nor had access to free public education; it was the birth of his vision to eliminate illiteracy. He pitched his idea at a local youth entrepreneurship contest and won a small prize. With his earning, he started Books From Bobby, Inc.
