Bennett's Community Supported Books
Donation protected
Bennett’s Books is a community-focused bookstore, we exist to make the world a better place. That said, in 2016 surviving as a bookstore is tough, let alone as a community-focused bookstore. As such, we’re embarking on a new endeavor - a Community Supported Bookstore (CSB) program. The CSB will help us successfully maneuver through the difficulties of running a small, independent bookstore while also allowing us to continue our mission of helping to improve our community.
Our goal is to gain at least 100 members and if we do, it will guarantee our survival for at least another year. If we are able to reach our goal it will allow us give back almost all of our profits during the year to other groups and organizations that are doing great work.
You can support the bookstore at several different levels and each level has its own set of benefits. We put a lot of thought into ensuring that the benefits of membership are well worth the cost. We have big plans to utilize Bennett’s Books as a catalyst for change and with your help we’ll make those plans a reality.
