Giving Back
We believe in the power of books.
A key role of independent bookstores is supporting community.Â
Â
Here at the Book Drop, we value our educators and every person that helps foster a love of reading in children. Our brick-and-mortar store, Bethany Beach Books, is an active member in our community, fundraising for and donating to numerous schools, teachers, and other charities in our area. Not every person has an indie bookstore near them that can help their community in these ways. Our Book Drop team strives to bring the close-knit, curated indie bookstore feel to readers nationwide.
Â
As of March 2025, we're working to give book subscriptions to worthy children and adults within the continental U.S. Do you know a voracious reader, without the economic ability to buy books as fast as they read them? A teacher who strives to make a difference in each child’s life? Nominate them. By accepting nominations, we're able to place books directly in the hands of readers. If selected, we will reach out to them for their mailing information, and start sending a book their way for a set number of months.

For one-time donations (i.e. raffles, fundraisers, galas, etc.), please fill out the form below. While we want to spread the love of reading as far and fairly as we can, we are unable to accommodate all of the donation requests we receive. If we are able to assist, we will reach out within a week of the submission.
