Thank you for making a financial donation to The Book Thing of Baltimore on the occasion of Booktoberfest 2025! If you itemize your charitable contributions on your tax return, your CPA may need this itemized receipt.

In 2024, we gave away over 190k books and recorded more than 9,855 patron entrances. So far in 2025, we have already given away more than 166k books, and we’re expecting to exceed last year’s totals. We are still a volunteer-run organization as we work towards sustainability without compromising the mission or fundamental nature of The Book Thing: putting free books into the hands of those who want them.
