OUR PHILANTHROPIC PARTNERS
Book Trust’s philanthropic partners provide the resources needed to expand our reach, increase our impact, and give every child the opportunity to discover the joy and power of reading.
“Scholastic’s twenty-year partnership with Book Trust is unique, inspiring, and truly ground-breaking. Looking ahead, I am even more excited about the work we can do together to realize our shared mission of guaranteeing all children can access and choose books they want to read and enjoy; and every child can own “I am a reader” as a part of their identity.”
Scholastic Book Clubs has served schools and families since 1948 by providing affordable, just-right books for kids that are carefully selected by teachers and reading experts. Our partnership with Scholastic, which was created when Book Trust was first established, is the backbone of our program.
Their generous support of both financial and in-kind gifts to Book Trust make it possible for every child in a Book Trust classroom to choose and take books home throughout the school year. The Scholastic mission has always been to harness the power of reading for all children. We are thankful and proud to collaborate with Scholastic and support their commitment to inspire young people to reach their full potential through reading and literacy.
$421,227 Donated to Book Trust through the DOLLAR DEAL during the 2021-2022 School Year
Scholastic offers an opportunity to donate to Book Trust each month through flyer order forms. Buyers can choose to add $1 (or more) to their Scholastic order and 100% of the donations go to Book Trust to empower children from low-income families to choose and own books.
Take a look at the gallery to the right to view some of our students’ favorite Scholastic titles this school year!
Book Trust would like to recognize and extend our sincerest thanks to the following organizations who donated more than $100,000 during the 2021/2022 school year. Their kindness and generosity are what propel Book Trust’s mission and increase our ability to reach more students across the United States.
