Help Build an Orphanage in Kenya and Get a Signed Copy of My New Lightroom 2 Book
Earlier this year, two friends of mine, Joseph and Molly Bail, were so moved by the suffering of homeless children in Kenya, that they walked away from their successful careers, sold their home, their belongings, and moved their family to Kenya to somehow find a way to build an orphanage there.
Well, if you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you know that I keep trying to come up with ways to help Joseph and Molly get that orphanage built, and I’ve come up with a way where you can feed your passion for learning Lightroom, and help Joseph and Molly feed and shelter these children who so desperately need our help, at the same time.
For one day—today, Monday, August 25, 2008, if you pre-order my new book, “The Lightroom 2 Book for Digital Photographers” using this special direct link; I will donate 100% of the entire cover price of the book to ‘Springs of Hope, Kenya,’ the non-profit grass-roots group put together by Joseph and Molly to build this orphanage. (This opportunity ends tonight at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Standard Time, U.S.).
I’m not donating just “the profits” from the book, or “a portion of the proceeds” from today’s sales—you pay the cover price for the book, $44.99, and all $44.99 goes directly toward building the orphanage, and feeding these children. So, basically, you and I are in this together, both of us giving to make something special happen in the life of child.
Along with my humble and most heartfelt thanks, I will personally sign your copy of the book, as my way of saying thanks for supporting Joseph, Molly, and the amazing and selfless work they’re doing with homeless and street children in Kenya.
Now, could you buy the book cheaper somewhere else? Absolutely, but when you buy it here today, you’re not just buying a book, you’re feeding and caring for a child that desperately needs your help. No matter what else you do today, you’ll know that you did something that really matters. You gave a hungry child food, and hope.
NOTE: Here’s the link you’ll need to buy the book direct from Kelby Training, so the proceeds go to Joseph and Molly.

IMPORTANT: This opportunity to help out is available only today, Monday, August 25th, 2008. Scott’s book is scheduled for delivery in early September. Not available with any other discounts. As always, Shipping & Handing is extra. Thanks for spreading hope.
Scott,
I missed out on this opportunity. I would love for you to do this again so I can get in on it. Great gesture for a very worthy cause!
What a good idea, !
I bought one (even from Switzerland) that I miss to add something in comments !
And even if I couldn’t lead in a WorldPhotowalk and get a free copy, I thought this idea extra, for a good cause !
I can’t stand waiting for it now.
At the risk of sounding a little preachy I want to say “Yeah God and way to go Scott Kelby!” In a world filled with so much darkness it is so refreshing to see a ray of light that will bring hope and help to some children in desperate need of both. I am the Pastor of Molly, Joseph and Scott and right now I am so humbled to be associated with people of their caliber. And now I’m delighted to also be associated with the likes of people around the globe who bought the book (even canceling other less expense orders to get on board) in order to literally save the life of a child. So thanks as well to all who made the purchase. May God bless.
What an outstanding gesture of support, Scott. Your signature hand is going to get tired!! You made it entirely too easy for us to support this great organization, and get something incredible in return… I want to thank YOU, and don’t feel like i deserve a thanks FROM you.
Looks like I’m seeing this a day late. We sponsor a little girl in Honduras through Compassion International; it’s a great cause.
I have a copy pre ordered on Amazon, but bought from Scott’s link to help support the cause. Now, I’ve just been informed that one of my photos was selected as the winner from the Photo Walk I attended. So now I will be getting 3 copies. One goes to my son who came along with me on the Photo Walk, the other will also be a nice present for someone else.
Thanks to people like Scott and every other NAPP member, the world might just be a better place.
Thank you Scott for leading such noble cause.
Its really very beautiful gesture,,I am waiting for releasing this book.
