Calling all Birmingham book lovers!

As many of you know I’m on the planning committee for this year’s Walk for Lupus Now Birmingham, an annual event that raises funds and awareness for lupus. We’re having a book fair with Books-A-Million on Saturday, May 1, to raise money and spread the word about the walk. May is Lupus Awareness Month, so this is an awesome way to kick off the month!

Here’s how it works: If you make a purchase at any participating Books-A-Million location in the Birmingham area a portion of the sales will be donated to the Lupus Foundation of America Mid-South Chapter. Please show your support Saturday, May 1 anytime between noon and 5 p.m. I’ll be at the Books-A-Million in Trussville talking to folks about the walk. Feel free to come stop by and say hello! 

Mother’s Day is approaching. Stop by and buy a book for mom. 

(FYI: You’ll need to present a special voucher for us to get a percentage of the proceeds. So if you’re interested in the voucher, email me at javacia@soulinstereo.com and I’ll send it to you.)

Here are some other ways you help:

– Start a team and join us for the walk on Saturday, June 5. This would be a great community service event for your fraternity, sorority, or social organization.  Visit  walkforlupusnowbirmingham.kintera.org for more information.

– For those of you outside the Birmingham area, you can help by making a donation to help my personal fundraising efforts by visiting my fundraising webpage at  http://walkforlupusnowbirmingham.kintera.org/javacia.
