“Show me a family of readers, and I will show you the people who move the world.”
As a senior director with PaperPie, my greatest desire is to bring families and communities closer together through books. The impact of books on a child’s future success is too significant to ignore — getting more books into the hands of kids is critical. Thankfully, PaperPie’s many literacy programs allow us to provide free books to schools, families, children’s hospitals, foster care agencies, and other community organizations in need.
How can I help you?
Community programs and partnerships
My work with PaperPie provides a wide range of ways to support communities — both local to me and nationwide! Whether you are looking to host a book fair or book drive, are looking for vendors at a community event, would like to get more mileage from your grant money, or need simple and efficient ways to raise more funds, I can help!
Book fairs and community events
Our book fairs are easy and accessible to preschools and daycares, K-12 schools and programs, children’s hospitals, and any other community organization that would like to host an event to earn books free. Following the event, you will receive a product credit for 50% of the event’s sales!
We also are available to host booths at community festivals, vendor events, and literacy events.
Grant matching and book drives
Our goal at PaperPie is to help get books into the hands of kids who need them the most. We offer a 50% match on any literacy grant funding you have — available for any grant $250+, with no upper limit. This means if you bring us a $5000 grant, we can provide you with $7500 in products!
We also partner with local businesses and organizations to run book drives for donating books to kids in need.
Fundraising programs
Our “Cards for a Cause” fundraisers offer a low-effort, high-return program that’s easy to run and well received by purchasers!
This simple program is available to any organization or individual who wants to raise funds for special events, kids’ clubs, activity fees, medical needs, or any other purpose. You can put these funds to use within a week of starting your fundraiser!
Virtual preschool book fairs
You can host a quick and easy preschool or daycare book fair — entirely online! There’s no need to make space for book fair tables in your classroom, no worry over accidental damage, and no stress over limited selections. Instead, student families can shop directly from their own homes at their convenience during your book fair.
Our virtual preschool book fair system is easy to follow! As your PaperPie brand partner, I’ll guide you through your book fair week and provide personalized suggestions for your student families. I’ll also provide a comprehensive packet with all the tips, wording, and graphics to help you make your event a success.
Greeting card fundraisers
In just 1-2 weeks, your family or organization can have extra cash in hand, thanks to our fundraising program. This program is incredibly simple to run and provides a high-return — most organizations receive over 40% of all sales, immediately after their fundraiser ends!
Your supporters will purchase high-quality boxed greeting card sets, with five different box options. Each set includes 30 unique cards (50 cards in the holiday set) for $30. Enjoying $1 per card, with a useful product that isn’t just junk for the home, Cards for a Cause purchasers will love your fundraiser!
