From the Detroit Free Press: Utash, soccer ref: Results of our rage

Why such anger, I wonder?

Making good on our promise in February to rebuild and restock 10 libraries in the Philippines, I am pleased to announce that the first library is underway! The interiors have just arrived, and we chose a unique dome structure that is more earthquake and disaster resistant. We need your help to reach our funding goal. No gift is too small. Please donate to #DRYLibraries at www.aholeintheroof.org/dry. Do please share this post with your friends.
