Buy a Book and Support Relief in Haiti
Chronicle Books will donate 20% of the sales earned on every book sold on ChronicleBooks.com, Irreference.com, and KnockKnockStuff.com to the American Red Cross to aid relief in Haiti following the devastating earthquake.
The donations will be open for the next 2 weeks until January 31st. If you are in the San Francisco Bay Area, Chronicle is also holding a bake sale.
Clearly the relief effort will take much longer than this. Here are two books you can buy from Chronicle even outside the relief ‘window’ that will still put resources towards a good cause.
The Power of the Invisible Sun, by Bob Sager, supports refugee children from war-torn and developing countries around the world — it is even endorsed by Sting, the super-talented vocalist and activist. Proceeds help buy ‘indestructible’ soccer balls for youth around the globe.
The second is Cooking Up a Storm, a recipe book that features culinary delights from victims of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
