Congratulations to elemenopee, the winner of our 2019 33 Days of Giving Prize Pack! Thanks to everyone who donated to support our mission of sticking it to cancer one book at a time in our 33 Days of Giving fundraiser! In total we raised $1,750.00 – more than last year. Don’t forget though, we welcome donations year-round, and there are other ways to help support our mission.
Thirty Three Days of Giving!

I think of you and all of the other Cannonballers and CBR supporters, because I’m thankful for each and every one of you!

A young mother, whose witty, snarky comments had made me laugh was no longer on this Earth, and I was just sitting at a computer, expected to carry on the work of the day as usual. […]
First CBR11 Donation to the American Cancer Society
