东方网12月12日报道：第二届马里兰年度慈善筹款活动于近日在上海落下帷幕。共计6万多元的善款将由中华捐书会安排，在贫困地区进行书籍捐赠与学校、孤儿院的图书馆修建工作。据悉，这次获得的善款将在安徽省建立10所图书馆。
中华捐书会创始人汤木表示：“尽管受到全球经济金融危机的影响，但今年我们所募集的资金却比去年多了35%，这十分难得，我们期待与马里兰大学罗伯特?史密斯商学院的学生与校友们继续合作。”
本次捐款的6万元人民币，将捐给安徽省太和县，二级或中心学校将得到500本中文儿童读物，缺乏硬件设备的小学以及图书馆也将得到桌椅及书架等设备。
据了解，截至2008年11月，通过中华捐书会，全国已经建立起79所小学图书馆，超过56,500册中文儿童读物送到了渴望知识的孩子们手中，17,700名孩子得以改善了教育环境。
