The global impact of this company cannot be understated. They allowed us to take a small tour of their facilities in addition to letting the Brazilian teachers go home with some books for their classrooms. We'd like to send a big thanks to everyone at Better World Books!

Better World Books
During the last week of our stay at Notre Dame, we were invited to visit Better World Books. This company, started by a pair of Notre Dame grads as a small fund-raiser, has grown into a world-wide business that has donated almost 12 million books, has raised nearly $16 million for literacy and libraries, and has reused or recycled 126 million books.
