Tree House Academy Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 A friend of mine posted this link on another board and I was just touched! I know that I have read so many stories here of people struggling to get the curriculum they need. This ministry tries to help EVERYONE! If you need help, or want to donate used materials, here is the link. :) The Book Samaritan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tree House Academy Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 I didn't realize it was done by someone here! Who?? What an amazing ministry, IMO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mazakaal Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Thanks for the reminder! I remember the ministry being mentioned here a while ago. Was it started as a response to hurricane Katrina or something? But I'd forgotten all about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Keeper Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 What a blessing! I now know just what to do with some of those books that just didn't work for us. Now they can go someone who needs them, instead of gathering dust on my shelves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandalwood Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Is it still active? The contact us page has info on it about filling request for the 2007 school year but I "think" I have read where people have gotten books since then. Does anyone know?

RJH Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I know someone from another board that just received some books from them. She was amazed at the wonderful stuff she got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tree House Academy Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 I have never "met" Ree, but I do read her blog on occasion. What a great ministry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazakaal Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Do you know how long it took for her request to be filled? I'm wondering if I mail them a letter (they don't take e-mail requests) now. If it takes only a month or so for them to mail the materials, then I'll still have plenty of time for ordering what I can't get from them. But if it takes a very long time before I know what they can provide, I may not have time to purchase what I need to. I tried e-mailing them on the address on the web site, but it bounced back to me. So does anyone know how long it takes for the books to arrive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, that is awesome! I usually have to sell curriculum to buy the next years but I am sure I have some things I could donate to them. What a wonderful ministry!

Homeschooling6 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Are they still accepting donations? I have emailed them twice but they have not returned my emails. Blessings, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandalwood Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Are they still accepting donations? I have emailed them twice but they have not returned my emails. Blessings, Yes, the street address on the website is correct. I just mailed some things off last week. From what I understand, they do not do emails anymore since their volume of email is so overwhelming. Someone correct me if I am wrong about the email.
