Thanks to a very generous donation from BFA Board member and founder of Amara Wines, Bob Marx, you can bid to send a full container of books to a recipient in the African country of your choice. This is a onetime only silent auction hosted by BFA. The highest bidder will be able to send a full sea container of 22,000 books to a recipient in the African country of his or her choice. The starting minimum bid is $2,500. Interested parties may place their bid by emailing maggie@booksforafrica.org. Highest bid will be updated here several times weekly.

Sixteen year-old Eagle Scout and book lover, Manvir Singh Bhagrath, shared his time, resources, and hard work with Books For Africa’s mission. In late August, Manvir called the BFA Atlanta warehouse to make sure employees would be there to receive his donations. Several hours later, the young man arrived to deliver a virtual vanload of books and school supplies.
