Support Read Far and Wide
Read Far and Wide is Growing!
And we need financial resources to meet the goal of making reading and traveling accessible to everyone.
Instead of selling stuff and placing ads on the website, I would rather ask supporters to directly invest in Read Far and Wide rather than another third party crowd-funding site.
The revenue raised will provide valuable seed money to invest in staff, technology, supporting authors, hosting events and other initiatives!
For more information, email Mindelynn at mindelynn@readfarandwide.com and she will gladly set up a time to chat about details.
We are very excited about the possibilities and grateful to all of our supporters!
