The Book Industry Charitable (Binc) Foundation’s year-end campaign, I Stand with Book and Comic Stores, needs to raise $150,000 before Dec. 31, 2024, to ensure it can continue its commitment to never turn anyone in need away.
To date, 399 grants have been provided to book and comic people and their families compared to 312 in all of 2023.
“The people who keep the doors of our beloved community bookstores and comic shops open need our support more now than ever,” said Binc Executive Director Pam French. “Binc is receiving 60% more calls for help from booksellers and comic retailers than before the pandemic. There are many worthy causes seeking support this Giving Tuesday and we’re grateful to everyone who thinks Binc.”
