Our First Chop Shop . . .

animalworkss

Was a rousing success! Thank you from the bottom of our philosophical hearts to those who presented this past Saturday. Below is a link to our new Chop Shop page, where our series will be housed. And below that is the video of our first installment in the series. Be on the look out for our next installment shortly after it takes place on October 11th. We’ll be discussing the layered nature of bodies! And if you like what you see, consider donating to our foundation through our fundraising page to ensure that we may continue making quality academic resources more accessible for those interested in philosophy!

Giving Tuesday

animalworkss

Hello All! We encourage you to check out our GoFundMe page for our upcoming “Giving Tuesday” event (Dec. 3rd). From now until then, we’ll be accepting donations to help fund our first library package donation to a Bethesda Project location. Thus far, we’ve only been able to afford our free philosophy course services at local shelters. We would love to be able to leave a physical reference to all of the themes we discuss! Library packages cost anywhere from $520 to $1,100, so we could use all of the help we can get. Here is a link to our “Giving Tuesday” campaign:

https://charity.gofundme.com/o/en/campaign/lcp-giving-tuesday

Any extra funds we collect will go towards maintaining our virtual office. We currently pay $100/month in rental fees.

And don’t forget, if it would be more meaningful for you to directly donate a book that we need to complete our package, please email Ms. Animal at animal.lcpfoundation@gmail.com for more information!
