Dear Friends

We’re getting ready for another book distribution, which we hope to take place this coming August. There are at least 3 organizations which will benefit, and we’ll be posting more information about them in a little while.

One volunteer of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, Lisa Moore, will be travelling to Brazil and has asked to participate in one of our book deliveries. We certainly appreciate the help and we’ll definitely do it. Quoting Emily Dickinson, she says: “There is no Frigate like a book to take us lands away nor any coursers like a page of prancing Poetry.” This is true, we can travel all around the world and learn about anything we choose just by being able to read. It’s truly a freedom that everyone should be able to have.

If you use Facebook, help us spread the word! A Facebook Cause was setup to benefit our organization and you can use it to tell all of your friends about us.

Whenever you shop at Amazon.com, begin your shopping experience by using http://www.booksforbrazil.org/amazon. It is the same as going to their website directly with one important difference, it helps us bring books to children in Brazil.

If you search with Yahoo, try using Goodsearch. The results are the same, and if you select our organization, a small contribution will be given every time you search.

These are all small contributions, but when taken together little by little, they can make a big difference.
