Other Ways to Give

Support Our Gratis Book Program

We receive daily requests from community leaders who can’t afford to purchase Hesperian books. When you donate to our Gratis Book Program, you make it possible for us to mail books to those in most need.

Your donation to the Gratis Book Program will make a lasting impact on entire communities. For each book distributed, the knowledge and information is shared with over 50 people! With your help, Hesperian books will support small organizations and dedicated volunteers as they work to improve the health of their neighbors and communities.

Workplace Giving

If your employer has a matching gifts program, you can double, or even triple, your donation to Hesperian. If Hesperian is not on the list of eligible recipients, you can request that we be added.
