Barnes & Noble Book Launch & Habitat for Humanity Fundraiser
Tuesday, January 28, 2020 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Barnes & Noble, 2498 S. Oneida St.
Green Bay, WI 54304
Barnes & Noble will be hosting a formal launch of my new book, Tell Them. And to make the evening even more meaningful, the Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity will be partnering with me. That means Barnes & Noble will be directing a percentage of all sales made that night across the entire Green Bay store to Habitat, in support of their 2020 Faith Build. On average, it costs $140,000 to build a home in Brown County. During the Faith Build, Habitat partners with local churches and faith-based organizations to raise funds. Thrivent Financial matches up to $70,000 of the local funds raised. Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity is one of four Faith Builds taking place across Wisconsin.
To say I am excited is an understatement. Having my books at a Barnes & Noble is a very special personal milestone for me, and I am honored to partner with Habitat, an amazing organization who gives so much to our community. So please come out and join us, and help us celebrate! There will be cupcakes and beverages on us. Barnes & Noble will have plenty of paperback copies of my books, which I’ll be happy to sign for you, or as a gift for the readers you know and love.
Even if you already have books, please stop out anyway and enjoy the fun. We'd love to see all of you and celebrate together. After all, none of this would even be possible without you! #LoveToTheReaders
