The Course Hero Knowledge Drive has recently reached a new milestone – 35,000+ books donated to children abroad since its creation in November of 2010. Established in partnership with Books For Africa, the Course Hero Knowledge Drive is founded upon a simple premise: for every 10 academic documents a student contributes to Course Hero, 1 book will be donated to Books For Africa. This movement allows Course Hero to add to the powerful social learning community and resources they provide to students around the world, while simultaneously giving children in Africa the gift of education and the ability to attain a better quality of life.
