Morry Morgan from ClarkMorganCorporate Training and Spark China interviewed Tom Stader, Founder and Executive Director of The Library Project for iTV-Asia. Morry and everyone at ClarkMorgan have been a huge reason for our recent successes at TLP. They have conducted non-stop book collections throughout China that have helped support 16 rural elementary schools in less than 1.5 years. They also raise awareness with their current client base about TLP. We cannot thank them enough.
Take a look at the short interview below to learn more about The Library Project.

Love Box Self Storage believes in helping non-profit organizations in creative ways to maximize their good work. Love Box first heard about The Library Project in early 2009 from one of our staff members. After finding out more details about the organization’s great work in building community libraries in rural parts of China, Love Box decided to help by offering one of our self storage units for free. With their main operations based in Xi’an, The Library Project can now use our self storage facility as a friendly, convenient and safe way to store their marketing collateral and materials for fundraising events held regularly in Shanghai. “Love Box Self Storage has helped us to considerably cut down on our overhead expenses by offering us a free space to store our posters, flyers, and other materials that we use at our Shanghai fundraising events. Because of their support we are able to spend more of a donor’s financial contribution on books, and less on shipping costs,” says Tom Stader, The Library Project’s Founder. Love Box Self Storage is also our first book donation drop-off point in Shanghai.
And really, don’t they not have the cutest logo ever created? Seriously…

Hyatt on the Bund in Shanghai have been running a wonderful fundraiser that we’d like to share with you. They created a Library Project set menu that 10% of the money generated goes toward library donations in the Anhui Province. To date they have raised over 27,000 CNY and sold more than 380 sets. Take a look at the wonderful advertisements that they put together for this fundraiser. They are all very bright and fun.
Thank you Hyatt on the Bund for all of your support!

Over the past two years PFW have been huge supports of The Library Project. They have donated three libraries and will also donate another two libraries in 2010. What makes PFW such a special donor is how their employees get involved. Their employees most recently conducted a book, educational toy and school supply collection campaign at their factory in Yanliang, China. PFW then donated the items to The Library Project at their annual Chinese New Year Party. Below are some great photos of the PFW team, the items they donated and the party.
These donated items will go into rural elementary schools in Lantian County in the Shaanxi Province. Thank you PFW!
