Thank you for your interest in promoting literacy in your community! Note: We receive hundreds of applications annually. To ensure your application's greatest chances of success, please provide as much detail as possible about your organization and how the books will benefit your community. If your application moves forward, you will hear from us! If you do not hear from us within 3 weeks of applying, that means we were unable to process your request at this time. We encourage you to reapply!
We will review your application based on the following criteria:
1. The organization's demonstrated need and potential reach
2. Our ability to provide the books requested
The most books available for a small shipment is 100.
If you can self-fund a larger shipment, please apply using the Domestic Large Shipment application instead.
To receive a box of books, you must be able to cover the cost of shipping/handling, approx. $60 per box shipped via USPS. If you are picking up from our warehouse in Lexington, a $10 handling fee per box applies. Payments can be made by check or with a credit or debit card.
Note: We receive hundreds of applications annually. If we have not responded to your request within three weeks and you are able to cover shipping, please call 859.254.6771.
