Become a Kindness Champion – Sponsor the What If We Were® Mission

When you sponsor What If We Were®, you’re not just backing a book series—you’re fueling a movement. Your support helps us get inclusive, empathy-driven stories into the hands of children who need them most—especially in underserved schools, libraries, and community programs.

With generous partners like the San Francisco 49ers, we’ve already assisted with donations of books to classrooms—and we’re just getting started.

Our goal is to partner with companies, foundations, and organizations worldwide and donate 100,000 books

Ways to Sponsor

Individual Contributions

Sponsor a classroom, library, or entire school by funding a What If We Were® book donation. As an individual donor, you can:
• Provide full book sets for a classroom or school
• Cover the cost of educational materials like activity packs and lesson plans
• Choose to remain anonymous or receive a personalized thank-you
• Add a dedication or bookplate inside the books

Perfect for parents, educators, grandparents, or anyone passionate about literacy and kindness.

Corporate Sponsorships 

We love partnering with mission-aligned brands and businesses who want to make a difference. As a corporate sponsor, you can:
• Fund bulk book donations to elementary schools, Title I schools, and nonprofits
• Sponsor live author events in underserved communities
• Co-brand materials (bookplates, bookmarks, event banners) with your logo
• Support our outreach initiatives and receive recognition on our website and social channels

Ideal for companies looking to support social impact, education equity, or inclusive storytelling.

In-Kind Support

Not every sponsorship has to be financial. We gratefully accept in-kind donations that help lower costs and expand our reach. You can support us by providing:
• Printing services (books, materials, signage)
• Distribution or shipping assistance for large book donations
• Marketing or media promotion support (press, video, content creation)
• Event space, transportation, or volunteer staffing for author visits

A great way for small businesses, publishers, media outlets, and community partners to give back in meaningful ways.
