Out of Print Clothing

This past Sunday, I wrote about Books for Africa.  This I found out about Out of Print Clothing.  For every product sold, for every follower on Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, and/or Pinterest, they donate a book to a community in need through Books for Africa.

That means you can donate four books without every leaving your computer or paying a cent.  Or you could buy something - Out of Print has T-shirts, stationery, tote bags, and more.  You could buy this THE GREAT GATSBY tee on sale and wear it to the movie premiere!  (Anyone want to lend me $16 to get one for myself?)

Books for Africa

Books for Africa aims "to end the book famine in Africa."  Now 24 years old, the organization has provided more than twenty-seven million books to people in 46 African countries.  Each shipment costs about $10,300.

If you donate, you can designate your funds for a specific project.  Volunteers over fourteen are needed in St. Paul, MN and Atlanta, GA.  You can host a fundraiser anywhere.

Books for Africa has a four-star rating from Charity Navigator.
