Hawaii HB107 establishes an Imagination Library of Hawaii program to provide free books to children from birth through age five.
Hawaii HB107 creates the Imagination Library of Hawaii program, which will offer one free book each month to eligible children, defined as those from birth through five years of age residing in the state. The program will be implemented through a contract with a nonprofit organization, which will handle outreach, community engagement, and partnerships to develop local book-gifting initiatives. The nonprofit will also ensure that at least 50% of the program's funding comes from its own resources and will partner with a national nonprofit foundation to supply age-appropriate books.
