HelpVera

I may well be the last to have heard the news that author & small press publisher Vera Nazarian needs our help - thanks to mroctober for alerting me! Wonderful online friends are doing a fabulous job of raising money to keep her and her family safe by December 20th - which also happens to be the night before the first Chanukah candle is lit. What a wonderful present to be able to give!

Read the whole moving story here.

And bid on the many cool things people are offering for the auction to Help Vera here. (I'll be putting up something myself very soon.)

Fortunately, we made her home itself safe, now, but fundraising goes on for others of her problems.

This is so wonderful. I have a feeling it won't be the last of such fundraisers in our community, though.
