We are thrilled to share that we have relaunched our Everybody Counts Or Nobody Counts t-shirt fundraising campaign. There are 6 shirt options and a hat to choose from. The proceeds are benefiting Hope In A Suitcase, giving tangible hope to foster children. No child should have to carry his or her belongings in a trash bag. A personalized suitcase or duffel bag, along with basic essentials and comfort items, sends children entering foster care a message that they are important and cared for by their community.

A Note From Michael Connelly:
We have chosen to support Hope In A Suitcase this time because it’s near and dear to Harry Bosch’s heart. As you probably know, Harry was orphaned at age 11 and spent the next several years in youth halls and foster homes. Many times he could have used a suitcase full of clothes and other things he needed. In my latest novel, The Hollow, he gets to make a sizable donation to a non-profit organization and he chooses Hope In A Suitcase. So did we. Thank you for supporting such an important endeavor. The Hieronymus Foundation will match the first $25,000 raised.
