Every donation matched by

 

Giving Day is a special 24-hour fundraising event where your donation will go twice as far. On Thursday, 21st August, every dollar you donate will be matched by our Foundation Partner, Dymocks Books and Gifts — doubling the impact of your generosity.

By donating, you’re helping us bring the joy of reading to thousands of children who need it most. Dymocks Children’s Charities provides brand-new books and literacy programs to schools and communities where children are most at risk of falling behind.

How You Can Get Involved

  • Make a one-off donation online!

  • Visit your local participating Dymocks store on Giving Day to donate in person

  • Set up a monthly gift to continue making an impact beyond Giving Day

  • Donate $500 or more, and your generosity will be acknowledged on our 25th Birthday Virtual Donor Wall

  • Share the campaign with your friends, family, or workplace to amplify the impact

  • Encourage your community to get involved, every bit helps!

Plus, something special is happening in-store! Dymocks will be hosting exciting events at select stores, including author visits and other celebrations. Stay tuned for announcements!

Why Your Support Matters

Today, in Australia, one in three children cannot read proficiently. Shockingly, it’s not mandatory for schools to have a library, meaning thousands of children are growing up without vital access to books. We believe all children deserve the opportunity to fall in love with reading and reach their full potential.

Your support helps us change that. One book, one child, one school at a time.

Thank you for participating in Giving Day!
