I wanted to pass some wonderful information onto you ladies. Many of you have heard of this great organization, but maybe some have not. It is called The Book Samaritan. This great organization provides free curriculum to those who are in need. They also take your used material as donations to help others!!! Isn't that great? Here is a snipit from their website:
We want to help.
We provide books and curriculum to families who have financial
needs. If you have budgetary constraints that are hindering your
ability to provide your children with the best possible curriculum
choices, please let us help.
Homeschoolers help us, too!
We recognize that for those homeschoolers who are more financially
secure, our services are not necessary. If this applies to you, we
thank you for not requesting materials. Instead, we humbly ask that
you consider a donation of your used curriculum. We rely on your
help!
Feel free to pass this information on to those who you feel might benefit from this organization. Their web-address is:http://www.booksamaritan.com/
