Day 197: donation to "Stop Girl Trafficking"

I purchased Jon Krakauer's "Three Cups of Deceit" today on Kindle for $2.99.  One hundred percent of the proceeds will go to "Stop Girl Trafficking," a project at the American Himalayan Foundation. I am a real fan of Krakauer's work, and I can tell how angry he is about Greg Mortensen's deceptions and the scandal surrounding Three Cups of Tea by the interviews I've heard and articles of read. I am intrigued enough to learn more about the scam, and I think it's the perfect opportunity to help Krakauer with his charitable endeavor. Normally, I would have checked out the text from the library, but for $2.99 and a charitable donation to a worthy cause, it seemed a great idea to buy instead.
