Sourcebooks has donated a total of $200,000 to six organizations supporting causes championed by the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. The one-time donations came from profits on sales of 2021 The Legacy of Ruth Bader Ginsburg Wall Calendar: Her Words of Hope, Equality, and Inspiration.
"Justice Ginsburg was an inspiration to women and girls across the country and the world," said Dominique Raccah, publisher and CEO of Sourcebooks. "Justice Ginsburg once said, 'Fight for the things that you care about, but do it in a way that will lead others to join you.' We are thrilled to be able to honor her life and legacy by continuing to support worthy causes that were near and dear to her heart."
The six organizations that received donations are the Malala Fund, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, the National Organization for Women Foundation, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Washington Concert Opera and the American Bar Foundation.
Sourcebooks employees came up with and created the tribute calendar in less than a week after Ginsburg's death September 18 last year. The calendar features art by 13 female artists paired with quotes from Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
