For every book provided, donors will be rewarded with a ₱100 voucher valid until 30 Sep. The voucher may be used at The SM Store’s Stationery section for a minimum of ₱1,000 single-receipt purchase.
Other than books, you can also donate school supplies. The SM Store accepts a pack of six notebooks or a school set that include a backpack, notebooks, rulers, and pens. Either counts as one donation and will warrant the same voucher. Donors may claim multiple vouchers at a time.

Since 1998, the Donate-A-Book campaign has encouraged SM Store customers to share the gift of learning. The annual program has successfully distributed over 800,000 school supplies to kids since 2015.
To further spread literacy this year, the Learning is Fun! (LIF) Publication pledged to match a portion of the overall donations for the benefit of school communities supported by the SM Foundation.
