StateTo nurture a reading habit amongst students, BREAD sets up children’s libraries in Government schools. Books for the library are curated by an expert committee. Each library has around 600-650 books catering to the interests of children between the ages of 5-14. Schools that benefit under this programme depend on the donor’s discretion. Else, BREAD targets Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya or a high school that secures more than 6 NMMS awards a year. BREAD annually replenishes books in the library. It has set up 1810 libraries, in 14 years since its inception, in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. BREAD is volunteer-driven with no paid employees in 34 years. Members provide free resources, cover expenses, and emphasize objectivity, accountability, and transparency. Admin expenses are around 1% of project costs.

Prize Programme
StateThe BREAD Society attempts to encourage students' reading habits and enhance their writing, comprehension, and communication skills through a prize programme. Students are required to read a minimum of 10 books and write brief reviews highlighting important points, new knowledge gained, and the moral of the story. To motivate others, previous prize recipients are ineligible for future prizes. Reviews should be submitted by headmasters with recommendations and scanned samples from each class by August of the following academic year. This initiative fosters a love for reading and provides tangible recognition for students' literary efforts.
