The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization with a mission to foster public appreciation of children’s books and to support the vibrant community of people who create and promote them.

For the first time ever, SCBWI is participating in GivingTuesday to benefit creators with disabilities. GivingTuesday was created in 2012 with the simple idea of encouraging people to do good and has since grown into a global movement inspiring hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

This December 1, we ask that any donations you give to the SCBWI be tagged with #GivingTuesday (in the PayPal or check memo) if you’d like them dedicated to scholarships, grants, and accessibility resources for people with disabilities.

To donate, please send your #GivingTuesday check to:

SCBWI
6363 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 425
Los Angeles, CA 90048

If you would like to support our organization can do so in three ways:

1. With membership. The easiest way to support SCBWI is with membership. Your continued membership makes our events, programs, grants, awards and outreach possible.

2. Donate to the Emergency/Tribute Fund. The SCBWI Emergency/Tribute Fund commemorates members of the children’s book community, their lives, and their work. All money donated to this fund will be used to help offer relief to SCBWI members who have suffered from either a health, economic, or natural disaster emergency.

You may pay by credit card OR send a check and the name of the person you would like to commemorate to:

SCBWI Emergency/Tribute Fund

6363 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 425

Los Angeles, CA 90048

Your tribute will be announced in the following Bulletin. Dollar amounts will not be listed. If you wish to remain anonymous please indicate so in your letter.

3. Donate to the Amber Brown Fund. Each year the SCBWI sends well respected children’s book authors and illustrators to two public schools who could not normally afford to have them.

To donate, please send a check and the Amber Brown Fund Donation Form to:

SCBWI Amber Brown Fund

6363 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 425

Los Angeles, CA 90048

Contributions to the SCBWI may be tax deductible and we are happy to provide you with a donor letter. Please consult your tax professional.
