Buy Textbooks, Change the World
Opportunities, Resources
A new semester is upon us, and college students, you know what that means…you get to buy textbooks! Only now they’re worth twice as much as what you sold them for in December. What, you ask, could possibly be better than spending $500 on books you might not ever use again? How about buying textbooks for a great cause?
Makarios, an organization The Austin Stone partners with in the D.R., has created an Amazon affiliate bookstore where you can purchase your textbooks for the Spring semester. Simply go to http://makbooks.org/, buy your textbooks, save some money, and help support the loving message of Jesus Christ through educational development in Hispaniola.
