CHARITY DAY

CHARITY DAY NOVEMBER 2024

This Thursday November 14th will be our Monthly Charity Day where we donate 15% of the value of each book sold in the shop and online to a charity or organisation that we love to support. This Charity Day, we will be donating to The Hut Community Centre in Aldgate. The Hut provides financial and social support, education, fun, and fitness activities to support the Hills community.

The Hut Community Centre offers a range of support services, including financial assistance, that can assist in times of need. Their services are diverse and focus on engaging with residents in our Hills community and making meaningful connections. Programs include training and education, sharing skills and interests, and healthy living activities. Their reach covers the Hills region through their networks and partnerships which support the philosophy of working with others to support the Hills community.

Last Charity Day in October on Love Your Bookshop Day, with your support we were able to donate to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation. The ILF is our bookshop's main charity, and they work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander remote Communities across Australia. The ILF is Community-led, and responds to requests from remote Communities for culturally relevant books, including early learning board books, resources, and programs to support Communities to create and publish their stories in languages of their choice.

Your support last month, enabled us to donate over 200 books to children in remote communities. Incredible!

Thank you for your support.
