We are seeking partners/sponsors for the 2025 festival.
Video will be uploaded soon...
Grand Sponsors $2,500 +
Our festival is a two-day event: Author Visit Day and Festival Day.
Author Visit Day takes place on Friday, Nov 14. Authors and illustrators donate their time to visit schools throughout Kitsap County, with an emphasis on Title One Schools. GRAND SPONSORS make Author Visit Day possible. They help us cover author and illustrator travel expenses (hotel, ferry, and meals.) For a few authors this will also include airfare and car rental.
Grand Sponsors will be listed on our website, posters and advertising. Their names will be displayed at the festival and on all programming, including bookmarks that are given out at school visits. They can bring their families for early, VIP entry on Festival Day.
​
Goal: $ 10,000
FESTIVAL PARTNER - If a business or individual donated the entire $10,000, they would become our FESTIVAL PARTNER. Their name would appear on all festival-related marketing (as described for Grand Sponsors) and they could have a booth at the festival. They would also receive a signed copy of a book from each author and illustrator.
​
To become a Grand Sponsor or a Festival Partner, please email us at PoulsboKidsBookFest@gmail.com and we will answer any questions and facilitate the process. Thank you. Or you can donate here.

Book Angels - $1,000
On Author Visit Day, students throughout Kitsap County will attend assemblies at their schools where they will meet authors and illustrators. If the school is Title One, then each student attending the assembly will get a free book. Donations from BOOK ANGELS will make this possible. Last year we were able to donate 784 books!
​
If you become a BOOK ANGEL, your name will appear on bookmarks that accompany the donated books. Your name will also appear on our website.
​
Goal - $5,000​
Book Festival Friends
There are so many smaller expenses, like feeding the librarians who volunteer their time during the festival, to creating posters to help spread the word. Anything you can contribute is greatly appreciated. Your name will appear on our website and we will be very grateful to you.​
