According to the Library, Compassion Books is now a network of 20,000 libraries in 3,000 schools and residential communities.

Through the House of Wisdom model, Compassion Books established 146 lifelong learning spaces in 12 provinces in Vietnam and four other countries (Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand and Japan), helping more than 10,000 children in poor, rural areas get a free education.

Compassion Books and House of Wisdom not only mobilizes financial resources to select, classify, package, and donate books, but also provides consultation to schools and localities on how to promote study. Compassion Books and House of Wisdom have launched a variety of useful community activities, including free classes, scholarships, and discussions on culture and education.
