Room to Read has agreed to help our library by taking donations for our Library Project at the Shree Nava Vijayee Mahendra Secondary School, Rasuwa, Nepal.
Thank you Room to Read!
This means that contributions for books made in the US can be tax deductible.
Here is what you can do.

- If people want to donate online, they can do so at the following link:
**NOTE: To ensure that our specific project receives the appropriate funds, online donors should select "Nepal - Local Language Publishing" in the "Designation" drop down box and also to be sure to select "Atlanta" in the "I heard about Room to Read through a chapter" drop down box.
- They are able to keep their costs extremely low: approximately US $1 per book. Once all the funds have been received, they will work directly with their local team in Nepal to have a box shipped from their supplies. (Our goal is 250 books from Room to Read.) Any donations in excess of our goal will go to help other worthy library projects in Nepal.

It's so good to see the progress on the library. You've done so much to start the snowball rolling in that and other places. Best wishes!
ReplyDeleteThanks Leenie, it has been a far more involved process than I originally imagined, but slowly it is all coming together.
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited to see it this far along!
ReplyDeleteJennifer - did the book get to you?
ReplyDeleteHi Trish,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the book that you sent. I have been on the road almost the entire summer and I still haven't had a chance to read it. I will have a break in a couple of weeks and hope to be able to enjoy it then. Thanks again! -Jeri
