Book Bomb for Ben Wolverton
April 10, 2013 at 12:01 am | Posted in Books, Charity, Events | Leave a commentTags: Dave Wolverton
There is a book bomb today for Dave Wolverton’s son Ben. Ben was in a serious long-boarding accident last week and the family is trying to raise money to help cover the medical expenses since they don’t have insurance. Ben is 16 and suffered severe brain trauma, a cracked skull, broken pelvis and tail bone, burnt knees, bruised lungs, broken ear drum, and road rash from the accident. He is currently in a coma.
Personally, I wasn’t familiar with the term “book bomb” but it’s an event where everyone is encourage to buy a specific book in order to raise money. This book bomb is focusing on two books: Nightingale and Million Dollar Outlines. You can also donate directly via www.gofundme.com/BensRecovery.
You can find more details here on their official site, www.helpwolverton.com and you can show your support via their Facebook page.
