IWEN Book Club Campaign

IWEN Book Club Campaign

By Linda Edgecombe

If you are a member of a book club, then you won't want to miss out on this great opportunity. We are connecting with book clubs across the Canada to bring awareness to our Nepal project, which rescues girls from bonded labor and sends them back to their families and school. Our goal is to have every book club get involved with the education of marginalized Nepali girls. In exchange we'll provide a free scarf for each member, - so you can wear them at your book club get-togethers.

It is my personal goal to have every book club member around the planet wearing one of our great scarves. There is no better gift than education! There are few options available: Each member of your club can raise $40 dollars and receive a scarf. Or, collect funds for IWEN to purchase books in Nepal to start book clubs in the villages. Or, your club could sponsor a girl to be rescued and provide her with schooling for a year? Cost $300.00 a year or just $25 per month. And of course everyone will receive a scarf. If it helps, remember we are a registered charity so we can give you a tax receipt for any donation.

Interested? Get Started!

Join us and register on our Facebook page (IWEN Power of One Book Club) or just email me at linda@iwencanada.com or info@iwencanada.com to register your book club.

Buy A Brick

For $100 you can buy a brick with your family name on it and have it installed on the walls of the school. You could also dedicate the brick to someone you care about. All proceeds from this will go directly to the Cause and you will be provided a tax receipt for your contribution.
