Charity Opus is a digital bookstore built on a simple belief: business and charity can work together — and readers can be part of that impact too.

We partner with publishers to curate exceptional eBook Collections and direct 50% of net proceeds to carefully selected nonprofit organizations with clearly defined initiatives and measurable goals. Each campaign supports specific work — because impact should be intentional, not abstract.

Our model is straightforward:

• 50% of net proceeds support our nonprofit partner

• 40% supports the publisher

• 10% sustains platform operations

We chose this structure deliberately. A meaningful share goes directly to charity. Publishers receive strong participation to ensure authors and rights holders are fairly compensated. Charity Opus retains a modest percentage to sustain operations, technology, reporting, and growth — because if the platform is going to support lasting impact, it has to be built to last.

Charity Opus was founded by Kelley L. Allen, a publishing and digital media executive with more than 25 years of experience across global book publishing and technology platforms.

Her career has included leadership roles at Sony, Random House, Hachette, Kobo, ByteDance / TikTok, and Humble Bundle, where she founded and led the Books division. There, she negotiated partnerships with major publishers and oversaw hundreds of promotions that generated over $150 million in book revenue while raising more than $32 million for charity.

Her work has supported organizations including Doctors Without Borders, charity: water, the Jane Goodall Institute, UNICEF, First Book, and the Book Industry Charitable Foundation — reflecting a long-standing commitment to aligning publishing initiatives with meaningful global and industry impact.

Among those initiatives was a Stephen King promotion that generated more than $150,000 for charitable causes — proof that when readers show up, meaningful support follows.

The platform’s early vision was co-architected with the late Faber Fedor, a talented technologist who believed deeply that technology should serve people, not just profit. His commitment to principled systems and thoughtful design helped shape Charity Opus’s foundation and its focus on transparency and accountability.

Charity Opus exists to make it easy to discover great books — and to make sure those purchases truly matter.
