Corporate Partnerships

Partner with First Book to increase access to quality education by providing books, resources, and support to kids and educators in low-income communities.

Join First Book to Increase Access to Quality Education

The resource gap in education is too big for any one organization to solve alone. That’s why First Book collaborates with leading businesses to expand access to quality education for kids in low-income communities.

Through these partnerships, we’ve distributed more than 250 million new books and learning materials to schools and programs serving children in need. With the support of corporate partners, we can reach even more educators and students.

How We Can Work Together

We seek partnerships that drive impact and business results:

  • Transformational Financial Support – Fuel our mission through direct investment, consumer-facing fundraising, employee giving, and more. Align your brand with social impact.
  • Innovative Program Development – Co-create educator-informed programs and resources. Use your expertise to empower educators and program providers and improve outcomes for children in low-income communities.
  • Employee Engagement – Inspire your team through hands-on and skills-based volunteer opportunities that support learning experiences and strengthen employee’s connection to the mission.
  • In-Kind Support – Donate new books, tech, and mission-critical resources to expand educational access and empower kids to succeed.
  • Joint Impact & Awareness – Expand our reach by sharing our work through your platforms. Together, we’ll raise awareness, achieve mutually beneficial CSR goals, and deepen impact in our shared communities.
