Dear USBBY Members,
Two generous anonymous donors will each match donations up to $1000 to support USBBY’s Twinning partners. USBBY pays the dues for the under-funded national sections of El Salvador, Haiti, Lebanon, and Palestine. These are all sections in which children are in crisis. Without the support of USBBY, these national sections would have difficulty surviving. USBBY’s annual contribution to these underfunded section dues amount to $4000 which is more than 10% of our overall annual budget.
Twinning is a concept promoted by IBBY that signifies a special mutually beneficial relationship between two national sections. USBBY has learned a great deal from our Twinning partners---resilience, creative reading promotion projects even in dire circumstances, and many other inspirational lessons. Please join us in supporting these under-funded sections with a donation, no matter how small, that will be matched and greatly appreciated.
The match will end on August 1, 2020. Thank you very much.
Warmest wishes,
Evie Freeman, President,
USBBY
