Sponsor a Subscription
UDP has a list of institutions—schools, community libraries, prison reading programs, literacy-focused nonprofits—to which we donate books when we can. Your sponsored subscription would ensure that one of these places (and all of the readers they serve) will receive all of UDP’s regular edition titles and periodicals for the next year.
If you’d like to sponsor a subscription, please choose your subscription level and purchase here, and note in the “Gift Recipient Address” field that you’d like to donate the subscription.
If you have a suggestion for an organization that would be interested in receiving donations of UDP books, please write to orders@uglyducklingpresse.org.
