Get involved

The wider our network of champions, the more sponsors get on board, the more books we get to kids. We’re on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Instagram. Give us a follow and remember to tag us in any posts and use the hashtag #bookdash!

By helping us cover running costs, you help us get more books to more children. Card, SnapScan and EFT payments are all accepted. If you’re in South Africa, then you can also sign up for a MySchool card and make us your beneficiary of choice.

Find out more about how to sponsor Book Dash events, print runs, translations and operational costs in our prospectus and get in touch if you’d like to be involved.

Don’t miss out on Book Dash news and announcements, like new books, print runs and Book Dash events.

If your organisation works with young children in need you can apply to become a distribution partner and receive free books for the children you serve.

If you want to adapt or translate Book Dash titles, you can find the source files for all of our books here.

The Book Dash model is open-licensed, too! That means that anyone can use our manual to organise their own book-making event. Our book design templates are also available. Please let us know if you are planning an event in your country!

Join our mailing list to find out when and where the next Book Dash event is, then apply to create a book in just 12 hours!

From time to time we explore aspects of what we do in some depth in our newsletters.

We use various channels to sell our books to people who can afford to purchase them. Proceeds from these sales are used to subsidise the printing and distribution of books to children who would never otherwise own books.
