Supporting the ProjectThe Society has felt a sense of urgency with regard to the acquisition of these manuscripts. In addition to their educational value, their sale to private collector will drastically affect their availablity for scientific research as well as the Coptic community. Also, it has been the practice of some of these dealers to dismember these manuscripts and sell them by the page for maximum financial gain. There are several manuscripts being sold in this fashion on EBay by an American dealer from Ohio. So the Society is encouraging all that value the preservation of the treasures of our heritage to support the project through their prayers and their offerings. Monetary contribution can be send by check to: St. Shenouda the Archimandrite Coptic Society
