Please Give to BeLit
Your gift of literacy will transform the lives of adults and families across Philadelphia.
Your Gift Changes Lives Through Literacy
In Philadelphia, over 600,000 adults lack the literacy and language skills to reach their professional goals, help their children with homework or to complete a job application. With your support, BeLit can help meet our region’s growing need for adult education opportunities.
Thanks to supporters like you, more adult learners have access to free quality education services. No matter how much you choose to give, 100% of your donation will directly fund Philadelphia adult learners on their literacy journey.

A donor-advised fund is like a personal charitable savings account. You create an account and make a contribution and receive an immediate tax benefit and then recommend grants from the fund over time. Community foundations often serve as sponsoring organizations, like the Philadelphia Foundation, and so do nonprofit arms of financial-services firms such as Vanguard Charitable, Schwab Charitable, and Fidelity Charitable. Once a fund is established, donors tell the sponsoring organization which nonprofits they’d like to donate to from their accounts. Give your financial advisor Beyond Literacy’s EIN to help with the transaction: 23-7043544.
Individuals who are 72 are required to take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) each year from their IRAs and may choose to donate all or some of the RMD up to $100,000 as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). Unlike regular withdrawals from an IRA, a QCD is not taxable. Contact your financial advisor for more information and give her/him Beyond Literacy’s EIN to help with the transaction: 23-7043544.
