Need a Last Minute Gift? Push Our Book Drive Over the Top!

By Merritt Frey, Executive Director

When you gift a textbook, a whole village celebrates! For real.

When you gift a textbook, a whole village celebrates! For real.

Despite your best laid plans, you might be just about starting to panic. I know I am! Do you need just one or two more gifts to finish off your shopping, but fear heading to the stores now just might kill you? I hear you. And I have a solution.

How about gifting one or more textbooks for our students in Mali? A textbook costs just $10, and you can donate them in any number. $30 gift? Three books. $50 gift? Five books. You get the idea.

Make your donation by midnight eastern on December 24 and be sure to share your gift recipient’s name and email on the donation form where indicated. Christmas morning, we’ll have a nice email waiting for them explaining your gift. And in January we’ll send them a video/photo update of the books being delivered to kids in Mali.

We’re 80% of the way to our goal of 300 textbooks by December 31, and you could be the one to push us over the top!

So, don’t fight your way through Target or worry about if the delivery guy will get through — donate a book or three in your loved one’s honor and feel good right away!
