Tome Gnome Friends and Supporters –

We have exciting news! We received $800 in additional “offline” (outside of PayPal) donations this weekend, which means we have now met – and slightly exceeded! – our fundraising goal for 2024. YAY! We are so excited that we can keep hiding books throughout ALL of 2024 🙂

These gifts included an additional $100 surprise grant from Downtown Tucson Partnerships, $300 raised from a Facebook birthday donation campaign (thank you to our lovely friend who ran that fundraiser on FB on our behalf – and personally matched it!), and several donations we received in person yesterday at our market booth at the Tucson Together Market!

At this point, we’ll be looking at all our $100+ donors this week and randomly selecting two winners for the final gift book bundles – stay tuned! (And if you need a reminder, these two remaining book bundles are the two sets of super special edition books from our founding board member/fabulous author extraordinaire TJ Klune’s personal collection – signed!). We’ll be drawing and emailing those winners on Friday night!

In the meantime, thank you SO MUCH for sticking with us through this fundraiser! We wouldn’t be here without you, and we’re shouting our thanks from the (virtual) rooftops! ❤

We have immense gratitude for this amazing bookish community that we’re building together. Thank you.

-Emily, Jody, and Mary Ellen-
