Donate to UNHCR... and maybe win a book?

Like many people, I'm not sure what to do in the face of all this evil and suffering.  I've read that one of most effective ways to help is to donate to UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, because they already have existing infrastructure on the ground and can use your money to help people immediately.

I've donated, and I'm doing another tiniest drop-in-the-bucket thing:  Anyone who also decides to donate to UNHCR can email me and enter a random drawing to win a signed/sketched copy of the new book, Tom the Dancing Bug Awakens.

Here's how to participate:
1. Donate any amount to UNHCR;
2. Send a screenshot of the receipt or forward the confirming email to [email protected]; and
3. Use the subject heading TOM THE DANCING BUG UNHCR DONATION.

You'll be entered in a drawing for a free book.
Donate and send the email between today at 2:00pm ET through Sunday night 11:59pm ET to qualify.
If you win, I'll email you back for your postal address.
USA addresses only please.

Thanks,

Ruben

 

3/9/22 UPDATE:

The winner of signed/sketched copies of Tom the Dancing Bug Awakens is Anthony Severo.

And the winner of another drawing, just for participating members of the Inner Hive, is Jim Hodgson.

 

So grateful that this little gesture generated thousands of dollars in donations. THANKS to everyone who participated to help the Ukrainian people! And thanks to everyone who donated to the Ukrainian people in any way, through my contest or otherwise! -Rb
