Hi Everyone,

 

I wanted to forward this press release from one of my clients, Better
World Books, announcing their 2010 EPA award.  For those of you who
don't know, Better World Books is a social enterprise that is focused on
helping to eliminate worldwide literacy through donations of funds &
books.

 

They are actively looking for municipalities & library systems
interested in diverting their books rather than putting them into
landfills.  Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in the
various programs that Better World Books offers and I'm happy to connect
you to the appropriate account rep.  They will pay you by the pound for
the books you can divert to their company, and they have eliminated most
of the "pre-sort" requirements, so it's basically, box up the books and
ship them to BWB....easy!  A great way to generate both tons (for your
reporting requirements) as well as funds (for your program!).

 

I wish you all a safe, healthy & happy Holiday season!

 

Sincerely,

Adam
