HELP American Friends of Neve Hanna raise funds for the Buy a Book, Build a Library Campaign. We need to buy 1,000 books for the library being built at Neve Hanna Children's Home in Kiryat Gat, Israel.
The Neve Hanna library will serve as an educational project and a self-support project. There will be a professional Librarian to supervise and educate the children and offer on the job training for our teens. This will give the teens the education, experience and job skills to pursue a career in Library Science.
Please help us reach our goal by making a minimum donation of $18.00 a book.
Neve Hanna friend and board member Margie Miller is giving back in a meaningful way by lending her October birthday for this fundraiser.
Help us celebrate and honor Margie's birthday now by making a donation of $10.00 in her name to American Friends of Neve Hanna. Margie will match the first 50 books bought at $10 a book.
Co-President Janet Tobin has kicked off the fundraiser by donating $100.00 for 10 books. Staff members Lisa Pollack and Marilyn Noble have each pledged to donate $50.00 for 5 books.
If everyone will donate, we can begin filling bookcases. Every book will include a bookplate with a donor’s name. The children will be excited to see that friends around the world donated the book that they are holding in their hands.
Please share the fundraiser with your family, friends and community. Spread the word that American Friends of Neve Hanna is raising funds to buy books for the new library at the Children’s Home. If you would like to make a $10.00 donation, Margie will match the first 50 books bought at $10.00 a book. We will graciously accept larger donations from those who are able to do so. Donations of all sizes are welcome with gratitude.
For those of you on social media, Margie’s birthday fundraiser will also be running on Facebook from October 12 until October 31. Please share the fundraiser with your online/social media community.
After October 31, the minimum donation will be $18 a book.
You may also make a donation by check. Make the check out to American Friends of Neve Hanna and under memo, indicate “Library”. Send it to: American Friends of Neve Hanna, PO Box 640685, Oakland Gardens, NY 11364-0685.
This fundraiser will be the gateway to our December 1st Giving Tuesday campaign – Buy a Book, Build a Library! Our goal is to raise funds to fill all the bookcases for the Neve Hanna library and give the gift of books so that every child and young adult at Neve Hanna will find books that they want to read. Keep an eye out for our Giving Tuesday campaign as we begin early promotions on social media. Further details to follow.
The children and staff of Neve Hanna thank you for your love and support. By giving the gift of books, YOU help make a difference in the lives of our children.
