[MR] Final booksale fundraiser for Atlantia KASF

[Lara Coutinho]

Unless someone new steps in to take the remaining books home after this
Saturday’s in-person University of Atlantia session, this will be the final
installment of the fundraiser book sale benefiting the Kingdom Arts &
Sciences Festival site support fund.

This project was originally started by Dame Deirdre, now Chancellor of
University, and I’ve carried it forward for the past ~2 years —periodically
bringing donated books to Atlantia events, offering them for $1 each (or
best offer), and sending the proceeds to support Atlantia’s use of
high-quality event sites for KASF. Over the past two years, we’ve raised
about $1,000 and rehomed countless books.

I am done.

You're warmly invited to bring used books to University this Saturday, June
14, and to browse and buy while I’m there. I’ll be leaving at 4:00 PM to
visit my sister, and at that point the remaining books will either:

A) Go home with my husband and be donated to a charity convenient to us, or

B) Be taken home by someone else willing to continue the effort.

My deepest thanks to everyone who helped haul endless boxes of books,
donated or purchased books, or made space at events—especially the staff of
Atlantia University, without whom this would not have been possible.

If you have questions about how the funds raised may be used for KASF,
please contact the Kingdom Exchequer.

With gratitude and profound fatigue,
Dame Sophia the Orange
