I received the following message which is pretty self-explanatory and for a good cause. Therefore I have chosen to share it as well as encourage others to pass it on:
Hi Carol,
I’m writing to you today to bring a new charitable project to your attention. The Human Rights Project is launching a new mission: to exceed the act of inspiring and successfully move people from apathy to activism.
To spearhead this movement, the Human Rights Project has developed a beautifully illustrated full-color book called The Trouble with the Alphabet. Written and illustrated by artist Caryn West, the book features the world from A to Z, with each letter corresponding to a country in peril. In turn, each country is connected to a charitable organization that is working towards alleviating the suffering of children in the region. A portion of the proceeds from the book will go to support the featured organizations, and all purchases from http://www.thetroublewiththealphabet.com come with the option of choosing which charity receives the proceeds. The Trouble with the Alphabet is more than a catalogue of charities and global ills; it puts a face on the horrors that some of us can only imagine.
We ask you to please share this information with your readers. You can direct them to http://www.thetroublewiththealphabet.com to learn more about the book and how they can support charitable efforts.
