Wednesday September 5
Indigenous
Literacy Day is a national event to raise both funds and awareness of
the crisis for Indigenous literacy.
On Wednesday you can
support the literacy work of The Fred Hollows
Foundation in remote Indigenous communities. Simply buy a book at
Riverbend and 10% of your purchase price will be donated to Indigenous Literacy
Day. If you'd prefer to make a cash donation we have collection boxes on
the Bookshop counter and if you wish to make a larger donation please visit our
website Indigenous Literacy Day for
details.
To celebrate Indigenous
Literacy Day we'll be holding lucky prize draws each hour, starting at
8.30am on Wednesday (the last draw being at 9.30pm). Everyone who
purchases a book or makes a donation in the hour of the draw will have a chance
to win some lovely books. You just need to be in the store when your
hour's prize is drawn.
