Environmental Sustainability
It's always the forefront of our thoughtsAt Book n Boots, we are dedicated to minimising our environmental impact and honouring the land cared for by traditional custodians for thousands of years. Our mission is to reduce our carbon footprint and maximise resource reuse, ensuring that we take the path of least environmental harm.
The Tiny Treasures Project embodies our commitment to sustainability, focusing on re-homing preloved children’s picture books. To date, we have successfully diverted approximately 4,600 kilograms of books from landfills, giving them a second life.
Whenever possible, we partner with the community and stakeholders to facilitate the transport of these books to First Nations communities.
Our commitment to sustainability is a core value shared by our board of directors and volunteers alike.
The RE-LOAD Program
Each week, our dedicated volunteers gather to sort, collect, and pack books for the Tiny Treasures program. While our generous donors carefully select suitable books for our First Nations children, some of them are transferred to our "Re-load Program," where they are distributed to local street libraries for community sharing.
Join Our Re-load Program!
We’re always seeking volunteers to help replenish street libraries. If you have some time to contribute, please reach out to us at tinytreasures@booksnboots.org.au.
Sustainable Development Goals
At Books n Boots, we work towards long-term human, social and ecological outcomes of the Global Sustainability Development Goals (SDP).
Books n Boots' strategic thinking supports twelve of the seventeen SDPs outlined by the United Nations.
Books n Boots would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we live, work, and learn. We would like to pay respect to elders past, present, and emerging and recognise that sovereignty has never been ceded.
It always was and always will be Aboriginal land
