The Tales of Beedle the Bard -Proceeds for Charity

J.K. Rowling has written the Tales of Beedle the Bard, a collection of fairy tales from the wizarding world, with commentary by Albus Dumbledore.  Ms. Rowling has assigned her royalties to the charity she founded, The Children’s High Level Group, a charity that assists institutionalized children.  The charity hopes to raise $8 million through sales of the book, which will be available December 4 this year.

This story is a bit removed from nonprofit law, but for those of us who love the world of Harry Potter, it’s welcome news.
