Mountain View and East Palo Alto, USA - August 3, 2017:

Five thousand books are being donated to students in the Mountain View and East Palo Alto area throughout August as a result of a partnership between Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT, BSE: 507685, NSE: WIPRO), a leading global information technology, consulting and business process services company, and First Book, a nonprofit social enterprise that has delivered more than 160 million books and educational resources to programs and schools with children in need.

The books will be distributed to registered First Book members in the Mountain View and East Palo Alto area, providing additional education resources in the community where Wipro employees live and work. The books will be used to stock classroom libraries, facilitate reading circles and help students build their home libraries.

Launched in 1998, the First Book National Book Bank is the first and only centralized distribution system for large-scale children’s book donations from publishers to schools and programs serving kids in need. The National Book Bank distributes 10 million books annually, and with Wipro’s support, 19,000 of these books will be donated to schools and programs in Mountain View, East Palo Alto, Boston, Seattle, and Indianapolis.

"Wipro is excited to further engage with the community through its contribution to the critical importance of access to books," said Anurag Behar, Chief Sustainability Officer, Wipro Ltd. "We hope that our reading-focused efforts in Mountain View and East Palo Alto will allow students to continue learning throughout the month of August, helping in shaping their future."

Since 2015, Wipro and First Book have partnered together to distribute over 118,000 books throughout the U.S. and Canada, with a goal of distributing over 200,000 books to children in need, as part of their three-year partnership.

Book ownership and a print-rich environment are leading indicators of a child’s educational success, but for the 32 million children growing up in low-income families in the U.S. alone, books are scarce. A recent study found that in one low-income neighborhood, there was only one book for more than 800 children, whereas in moderate income neighborhoods, there are 13 books for every one child.

First Book, which has operations in both the U.S. and Canada, works with formal and informal educators serving children in need aged between 0-18 years in a wide range of settings - from schools, classrooms, summer school and parks and recreational programs, to health clinics, homeless shelters, faith-based programs, libraries, museums, summer food sites and more. The organization supports nearly one in four of the 1.3 million classrooms and programs that are serving children in need in the U.S. alone.

"Wipro and its employees in Mountain View, Palo Alto, and all over the U.S. support their local communities by spreading First Book’s mission to bring the transformative power of books to children in need," said Kyle Zimmer, president and CEO of First Book. "Through the support and dedication of Wipro employees, tens of thousands of children will have the tools to fuel learning and unlock their futures."

Wipro has over 40 facilities across 23 states in the U.S. Recently, the company launched a multi-million dollar Silicon Valley Innovation Center in Mountain View, designed to develop and showcase next-generation technologies and solutions for enterprises. Wipro has partnered with leading Bay Area technology companies, start-ups and academia to continuously evolve in the digital transformation space. The center has also incubated a ‘Digital Pod’, purpose-built for Wipro’s digital strategy, design and engineering teams to work in a collaborative and adaptive workspace, along with clients.
