How is My Donation Used?
Funding Cancer Causes
All profits of Cannonball Read, Inc. (CBR) are donated to cancer causes to support our mission, and thanks to your financial support, our donations to the American Cancer Society reached $10,000 in early 2022.
Community
A byproduct of running a website that not only encourages participants to read, but also to write, is the kind, inclusive, and supportive Cannonball Read community. Cannonballers recommend books and encourage writers who try something new stylistically or share something personal on a daily basis, and the site is a great place to finally “de-lurk” and get your writing out there. This community would not exist without the financial support of people like you.

Volunteer
If you would like to join the crew of talented and dedicated people who have volunteered their time to help out with social media, to newsletters, to the book exchange, we could not run as smoothly as we do without them. Contact us if you have a special skill you’d like to volunteer or if you’d like to help out in any way you can.
