Two New Items

For those of you attending Reach Becomes Reality, we have secured two new auction items. Given our literacy focus, I am particularly excited to auction signed copies of these recent bestsellers:

The Other Wes Moore by Wes Moore

Two kids with the same name were born blocks apart in the same decaying city within a year of each other. One grew up to be a Rhodes Scholar, army officer, White House Fellow, and business leader. The other is serving a life sentence in prison. Here is the story of two boys and the journey of a generation.

The Tenth Parallel by Eliza Griswold

The tenth parallel—the line of latitude seven hundred miles north of the equator—is a geographical and ideological front line where Christianity and Islam collide. More than half of the world’s 1.3 billion Muslims live along the tenth parallel; so do sixty percent of the world’s 2 billion Christians. Here, in the buzzing megacities and swarming jungles of Africa and Asia, is where the two religions meet; their encounter is shaping the future of each faith, and of whole societies as well.

In addition to these books, we have some other exciting auction items:

• 6 nights in a 6 bedroom home in The Outer Banks, North Carolina
• 4 nights in a 2 bedroom condo in Keystone, Colorado
• 2 tickets to see Duke vs. Maryland at Cameron Indoor Stadium
• Photography by Wyatt Gallery

These items simply add to the excitement created by the door prizes and drink discounts available on September 29th. Tickets are going fast - buy now!

Thanks, as always, for reading.
