Our Impact
Stories That Travel Far
Every book we donate carries more than words—it carries hope, curiosity, cultural pride, and the opportunity to see the world through new eyes.
Our Reach
Where our books travel
Together with teachers, schools, NGOs, community leaders, and our Dragonfly Ambassadors, we bring bilingual books and educational resources to remote communities around the globe.
From Indigenous villages and island schools to rural classrooms and conservation projects, our mission is helping children discover a bigger world—one story at a time.
From the Field
Voices from our partners.
“Thanks to our alliance with The Adventures of Pili, we were able to deliver hundreds of books to the Public and School Libraries of Cali in neighborhoods with the most vulnerable population, and in the rural libraries of Valle del Cauca, in places recognized worldwide for bird watching in Colombia.”
Maria Elisa Holguin
Executive Director, Bibliotec Foundation
“The Adventures of Pili has set a standard in pedagogy and didactics for teaching bird watching to children in Tolima. It has had a great impact since the 2019 Tolima Bird Festival as a strategy for children to learn in a fun way and fall in love with birds and their care. Great support received by Kike Calvo for this part of Colombia.”
Matilde Antia Ruiz
Specialized Professional, Subdirectorate of Natural Resources Administration
“The Adventures of Pili Project has helped us strengthen our environmental conservation work in the rural areas of the municipality of Jamundí in Valle del Cauca, facilitating educational processes with children for the conservation of birds in their territories.”

“We feel very proud to make children happy, providing teachers with a tool for the growth of our children and adolescents. This would not be possible without Kike Calvo, who donated us books for the Municipality of Planadas.”

“I just opened the box of books yesterday! They are wonderful; thank you so very much! I have placed a few on our inpatient library shelf and I’m sure they will be a hit!”
