Share a book with Malawi

A fundraising event will be held for the International Book Buddy Trust on November 8, 7 p.m. Local organizers are collecting books to send to Malawi, a country where there are virtually no books and hence poor literacy.

This book-oriented event, at St. John’s United Church, 11 Guelph St., in Georgetown, will include food and entertainment. Participants are urged to bring a new, or gently new, book to be part of a silent auction. During the evening you can extol the virtues of your book and encourage people to make a higher bid.

Tickets are $5 and are available Sue Harnett, 519-927-3367, sueharnett2@yahoo.co.uk or Nora Lipp, 905-873-7759, tulippsca@yahoo.ca. Tickets are also available at The Freckled Lion in downtown Georgetown or at the door.
