Have you heard about Operation Smile? From my short online research, I found out that this movement, Operation Smile, is actually an organization where children with cleft anomalies and deformities undergo a life changing cleft lip surgeries. Said children are from families that could not otherwise afford the surgical process. This long term improvement in the children's quality of life are truly inspiring. Donations come from all over, and mostly from big companies and individuals who are known in the society. But who says that college students are not able to do that too?
CampusBookRentals.com is actually a partner of Operation Smile. For every book rented, a portion of the fees go to Operation Smile. So that college students who patronize textbook rentals, are also donating for the said cause. They have also aside $90,000 in textbook scholarships that had been distributed to students in communities just like ours, so that underprivileged kids will have books to use.
Now, I am even more excited to look for books like Sybil, and rent it. It's gonna be 40-90% cheaper than buying the book itself, plus I can highlight on some important facts in the book. I can enjoy a 30 day risk free return. Best of all, I get to donate to Operation Smile..
