To donate their profits to charities in need, the Bookworm Box team works with a group of dedicated volunteers and authors who donate their books and time to make sure each box contains an autographed novel. You can also submit someone who deserves some extra kindness by submitting the Nominate Kindness Recipient form. It costs $15 and includes one book and some book goodies. The Kindness Gift is a gift you can purchase for an anonymous person. To continue to pass on acts of kindness, Bookworm Box launched The Kindness Gift, an initiative that the subscribers of the box created.

Rae also explained that they are starting to emphasize charities that support literacy efforts or tackle food insecurity. “Occasionally, we will do a special fundraiser and select organizations that are either important to one of the authors we’ve worked with or someone on our team.” “We have a form on our website that charities can fill out to request grants, and most of our monthly subscription funds go to those organizations,” Rae shared. Working with a small team, the Bookworm Box loves to hear directly from their subscribers about what charities to support. “We tend to put an emphasis on independently published books and try to purchase most of our swag items from small businesses.” “The method by which we choose our books comes down to authors who express interest in being featured, as well as authors who are in high demand from our subscribers,” co-founder Rae explained. So far in 2022, the team has donated more than $50,000 to charity.Įvery box comes with an autographed book, reading accessories like bookmarks, and other reading goods. To date, the box has donated more than $1 million to more than 400 charities, most recently including the East Texas Crisis Center, Dyslexia Association, The NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund, and many more. The Bookworm Box fosters a love for reading, and 100 percent of the profits are donated to charities across the country.
