Book Charities--how do you support literacy?

In the past few years I have made my own individual efforts to give books where needed...sending picture books to a library in Mongolia, donating to Room to Read's Local Language Publishing Program, and donating books to libraries and schools locally and when I travel.

There are many book charities worldwide that support literacy and reading, and Amanda Allen of the Children's Literature Program at Eastern Michigan University has put together an amazing list of these charities on her blog Playing by the Book. The list is organized into the following categories: International, U.K., Australia, U.S., Canada, Africa, India and Others.

This year my focus is on Cambodia and doing what I can to help increase literacy in that country. How about you?
