A good opportunity

I am starting a fundraiser to raise enough money to ship over several thousand books, which a non-profit company is willing to donate.  It is my hope to bring in English literature into Namaacha, Mozambique.  If anyone is interested in donating to this cause, please look at the below information.

Every child deserves a book to read, but unfortunately people in Africa, don't have the resources to pick up a book and indulge in the literature world.

The International Book Project is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization with a 43 year history of providing books to schools and libraries in the developing world. We have sent over 5.5 million books since our founding in 1966. All donations for David’s project are tax-deductible. You will receive a tax receipt from IBP.

You may donate online at http://www.intlbookproject.org/donate.php. Please put “David Hartness, Mozambique” in the notes box. You may also donate by sending a check to:

International Book Project

Attn: Rachel Lewis, Executive Director

1440 Delaware Avenue

Lexington, KY 40505

Please also include a note or write “David Hartness, Mozambique” in the check’s memo.

Once the books have arrived in Mozambique, I will distribute them to the local elementary, secondary and the Teacher Training institute.  These books will effect the lives of several thousand kids, by improving their language ability and by improving their reading skills.  I hope that everyone can contribute a little money, to bring this into reality.

 

Thanks!
