Does Yea Forums donate books to the less fortunate?

Some, yes. My library has a little shop in the back where they sell books for $1, it's a good place to send what I no longer want.
Spiritless curs.

I seed.

That's a valid reason. To "help the less fortunate" is a cope.

I'm actually Christian

i've given away most of the books i've ever owned
i still have tons

>tl;dr virtue signalling
its not a new concept

Cast ye not pearls before the swine.

Nah, fuck the poor. I usually just give them away to friends.

I usually put a little money between the pages before donating

GENERALLY, MATERIALLY POOR INDIVIDUALS DO NOT READ, BECAUSE THEIR BASIC REQUIREMENTS, AND NECESSITIES, ARE UNFULFILLED; LITERATURE IS IMPORTANT, NOT NECESSARY, NOR REQUISITE; WHAT IS IMPORTANT CANNOT BE FULFILLED BEFORE WHAT IS NECESSARY, AND WHAT IS REQUISITE.

CHARITY SHOULD BE DONE IN HOLISTIC MANNER, HELPING OTHERS FULFILL THEIR REQUIREMENTS, THEIR NECESSITIES, AND THEIR IMPORTANT INTERESTS, NOT MERELY ONE OF THESE ASPECTS, BECAUSE THE GRACES ARE THREE.

Not completely the same but my town has a few "community bookshelves" where the idea is to take a book and leave one in return. I use that a lot and there's a surprising number of good books.
I only really give away my textbooks when I'm done with the respective courses and I'm sure I'll never use them again. I don't like giving away fiction because I usually read them at least twice, even if there are years in between.

I always prefer donating a book I originally bought second hand more than a book I bought new.

I gift books I have finished reading to others for birthdays and holidays. I’m too poor and don’t care enough about my friends to get them real gifts as late stage capitalism demands. No one reads the books I give them anyway. No one ever reads.

No, you're not. You pretend to be one on the interne because you're a /pol/tard subhuman and think it's cool

I donate them to a small library that sells book for 3€ maximum.

no, books are very precious. id rather donate my kidney

i AM the less fortunate. but i dont need books, i need gf

No. I've never bought a book that isn't worth rereading.

no, but i should. i own many books i have no intention of reading.

no i donate them to www.amazon.com

when i buy used books from biblio i usually check the tap that rounds your purchase up and gives it to charity

SIKE! I never do that.

The less fortunate should just download their shit off libgen like the rest of us

why yes in fact i donated 200 copies of Culture of Critique to my local synogauge the other day

>and implying they have internet to read whatever they want

>third world represent here

I donate them to local thrift stores so I can accidentally buy them again a few months later.

I sell them to local used book stores. One of the one stores I sell, if they didn't take my books, I donate in the book donate drop-off nearby the store. I get money either way, and books get donated to the poor.

hope the poor likes tomes

The less fortunate shouldn't read or write

This.

Yep. But not out of the kindness of my heart. I'm a Peace Corps volunteer in a tropical post-colonial country. A lot of schools receive book donations occasionally that are both age and culturally inappropriate. If a 5th grader at the school I work at wants to read a book, they're likely going to have to pick up Pride & Prejudice or something similar. So now I beg books that a child might actually want to read.

So if you're going to donate books at a charity to be sent abroad, please stop sending small black children your stories about old white people in winter having existential crises. It's already like 60% of the books they have.

>Donating items that you no longer need.
That's not charity. That's taking out garbage. Donate your physical and mental talents. That's true charity.
