“Rachel Cleveland dealt with challenging health issues for a number of years. After overcoming those challenges, she chose to share her love of books and reading while giving back to the Twin Cities. With a master in public policy and background in nonprofit work and development, the idea for Little Charity Book Truck was born.

By not having a brick and mortar storefront, Little Charity Book Truck has very few administrative and overhead costs. Similarly, all individuals involved with the book truck are volunteers, so every dollar made through book purchases goes directly back into the community. It’s truly a passion project. Reading books while helping others, what could be better?

Sometimes the best stories aren’t just found between the pages, they’re written by communities coming together, one book at a time.”
