Want to Help?

Hey everybody

So remember how I keep talking about libraries and and young author's faires, and how much work it is to create a culture of reading in South Africa? Well, if any of you have ever read that and thought maybe it might be a cool thing to help out a bit, now's your chance.

All three schools have now gotten libraries up and running, but they're small. Not too long ago a wonderful lady agreed to donate thousands of books to our libraries. She got the books together, she got the books boxed up...and then the cost of shipping went through the roof. So we need money to get the books from San Francisco to Steenbok, and we need a little something to pay for customs when they get here.

This Link is for a grant I recently wrote, allowing any and all donations to go through Peace Corps and to therefore be tax deductible. So it's practically free, right?

I'm not asking you the individual for all $3450, even just $5 or $10 will help. Whatever you've got. Look at it one of two ways:
1) You're doing something awesome for children in Africa who would never otherwise have this opportunity. You are in fact being a Good Person. Karma and all that.
2) Over the past two years maybe you've been entertained by stories of my ridiculous life. Bucket bathing is way funnier when its not happening to you. Say thanks with $5 or $50. Or heck, $500. I'm not picky.

In the immortal words of Stan and Kyle, "I mean...come on!"
