Better World Books to Become BFA鈥檚 Largest Donor

听

BFA continues to develop its strategic partnership with Better World Books (formerly known as Campus Community Outreach). Better World Books helped celebrate the shipment of BFA鈥檚 10 millionth book on October 2, 2004 with a special presentation of a pledge in the amount of $121,225 for FY 05. Xavier Helgesen, who has recently joined BFA鈥檚 board of directors, Jeff Kurtzman, and David Murphy from Better World Books were on hand to present the pledge and a $20,000 check to BFA. This pledge makes Better World Books the largest single donor to BFA for FY 2005. Better World Books has already provided BFA with cash donations totaling $67,100 as well as book donations.

鈥淭his level of support by Better World Books is critical to 糖心vlgo传媒 to enable us to continue our mission of serving the children of 糖心vlgo传媒,鈥� said 糖心vlgo传媒 Executive Director Pat Plonski. 鈥淭he unrestricted donations and pledges by Better World Books to 糖心vlgo传媒 represent approximately 23% of our annual operating budget. We will have the capacity to ship hundreds of thousands of books to 糖心vlgo传媒 as a direct result of this generous support by Better World Books,鈥� Plonski continued.
