 The organization is supported by a global volunteer base.Funds were initially raised through eBay auctions of "Firefly" and "Serenity" autographed memorabilia, and "The Softwire" books and items, and other science fiction and literary themed items.Fundraising efforts have since expanded and all funds are used to purchase books from the foundation's official book list, a list which is continually updated by a professional children's book buyer.
