Why Partner with Us and Donate a Cash Prize to the Firebird Book Awards?
It’s just good business to align with a book award group that:
♥ chooses to prioritize the author relationship and not just the entry.
♥ allows authors to help less fortunate humans via the tax-deductible charitable entry fee.
♥ makes your name visible to thousands of potential clients – Brand Awareness.
♥ goes the extra mile to support you and your organization. See our gratitude gifts below.
♥ gives you a tax deduction for your donation (Your donation supports our ongoing homeless shelter transformation project. We send handmade one-of-a-kind pillowcases, colorful totes, superhero capes, and children’s books to Enchanted Makeovers – a registered 501(c)(3) charity. naming you/your company as the donor. You will receive a tax donation letter for the full amount of your donation.)
PLEASE NOTE: Our contests occur every quarter. To maximize the impact of your generous donation, we will award your prize money in four distributions. This will allow every quarter’s top winners the opportunity to win a cash amount with your name as the donor, while giving you extra quarterly recognition. We begin promoting you the day we receive your donation and continue to do so for the entire year. If you donate mid-quarter, we’ll start promoting early within our newsletters and on Twitter—no need to begin exactly at the beginning of a quarter. Once the true quarter begins, we will go full steam ahead and promote you as stated below.
