BOOK SALE AND FUNDRAISER by Stephanie Matlock Allen

On a sunny Sunday afternoon in February , Michaela Anchan hosted our second AWCH book sale and fundraiser at her home . There were hundreds of used English books from every genre , and everyone got a stack of great titles to take home .
Attendees donated more than € 750 at the event ! This money will support the ongoing project “ I Will Learn — Keeping Tribal Children in School ,” facilitated by the Nandanvan Trust in Maharashtra , India . The AWCH has been raising funds for Nandanvan Trust projects for many years . Ulrike Henn joined us virtually to share her experiences with the project .
Thank you to Michaela , Diana Schnelle , Carol Strametz , and Carol Harbers for organizing the event , to Michaela for opening her home , and to everyone who donated books and money for this wonderful gathering !
