My name is Dohn Dye & I am Director of the Miss Alabama USA pageant which was held in Tuscaloosa last fall.

Madeline Mitchell the current Miss Alabama USA is an Education Major at UA and has decided to write a childrens book with proceeds of the sell of the book benefiting tornado victims. With us both having ties to Tuscaloosa we would like the proceeds to benefit the Tuscaloosa Disaster Relief Fund.

We literally came up with the idea tonight but so far we have of course the author and an illustrator. Our hope is to find a printer to donate the printing of 1,000 copies of the book, sell them for $20 per book, and raise $20,000.00, hopefully for your organization.

We will sell the book off of a website & at appearances/readings throughout the state. Ideally upon purchasing the book through the website the buyer would be linked directly to your pay/pal & of course books purchased on person checks would be made directly to you.

Im certain you're very overwhelmed at the moment, but if you think this is something you would like to be involved in, please contact me asap.

Sincerely,

Dohn Dye
