STUDY FOR TWO Second-Semester Textbook Sale

2012年10月9日更新

The Ochanomizu University Chapter of STUDY FOR TWO held a four-day used-textbook sale October 9-12, as an activity of the “Living Together in a Global Society” Study Group. STUDY FOR TWO is a student organization that collects and sells used textbooks on campus and donates the proceeds to benefit children’s education in Laos. This was the Ochanomizu Chapter’s first sale since it began collecting used textbooks last April.

The sale was held just outside the university library, where large numbers of students pass through, and many stopped to browse. By the end of the four-day sale, the group had taken in 63,620 yen from the sale of 57 textbooks. After sale costs and group expenses, the event netted 55,458 yen, all of which will be donated to a fund to support children’s education in Laos.

We are now busy planning exciting campus events to promote textbook donations for our spring 2013 sale. Our thanks go out to all those who contributed this time around by donating, buying, or helping out with the sale.
