To put it simply: For the LOVE for ANIMALS!
When we started as an animal welfare initiative almost 20 years back, we
encountered two main things; unwanted pets and unwanted books. It was a
challenging combination to manage but we found the amazing opportunity
to bring affordable books to readers in the region and continued to help
people and animals.
From this effort to better the community- BookHero was born!
Today we ensure that compassion for all living beings is an essential value
to the BookHero tribe.
Apart from selling NEW and PRE-READ books, we offer other services
that align with our goal of building a reading nation:
⚫ We sell/rent bulk books as props or part of décor to film makers,
advertising agencies, hotels, offices, developers, etc. FOR FULL

⚫ Our “Books&Break initiative” allows companies to offer their
employees this cool monthly service where our books can be picked
for mainly AED10-20 . The intention is to encourage them to read
and foment the health benefits that come with reading.

After establishing a basic business model, we were able to look into
spreading the love and care for reading. We want to be the ones to blame
whenever you escape the real world for books!
The literary world offers us a multifaceted perspective and allows us to
cascade into wonderful social initiatives that benefit both the local and
international community with projects such:
“The Traveling BookHero” – Where we send our book donations to
underdeveloped countries when anyone travels there as part of their
holiday or for work.
"The Free Educational Book Swap" – This scheme, operational since 2016,
lets students and parents swap educational books for FREE. We have
swapped thousands of educational books over the years and supported
hundreds of families across the UAE with low budgets.
Our annual “stray animals sterilization campaign" has allowed us to
facilitate nearly 1,600 sterilizations per year. This is a community
achievement made possible in collaboration with reputed veterinary clinics
in Dubai and contributions from the private sector. We have a helpline for
animal welfare issues that responds to over 38,000 queries per year.
If you are traveling out of the United Arab Emirates and feel like you’d be able to carry some books with you for people in need then you can reach out to BookHero!
