OUR CONCEPT<br />
What if there was a fundraising program to publish a book, that wouldn’t cost you anything and didn’t<br />
require a whole lot of effort? Does this sound too good? With <strong>HPN</strong> Books and LedgeMedia, this is<br />
actually true.<br />
<strong>HPN</strong> Books presents a fundraising concept for both promotion of your message in a beautiful coffeetable<br />
book format as well as a unique method of income generation that doesn’t compete with your<br />
traditional methods but actually supports them.<br />
The concept can be applied with any of our <strong>HPN</strong> Books’ Historic/Community Heritage, Cityscape, or<br />
Commemorative book-series templates as well as customizing a book to your own organization or<br />
association needs.<br />
The following organizations have utilized our unique book program:<br />
• Historical Preservation Societies<br />
• City and County Governments<br />
• Chambers of Commerce<br />
• Trade Associations<br />
• Convention & Visitor Bureaus<br />
• Nonprofit Organizations<br />
• Colleges & Universities<br />
• Hospitals<br />
• Museums<br />
• Public Libraries, and more!<br />
<strong>HPN</strong> Books was created with the mission of helping to preserve in print some of the nation’s invaluable<br />
local historical narratives and utilizing them to raise funds for the organization preserving them.<br />

ABOUT THE PUBLISHER<br />
<strong>HPN</strong>books was conceived around the idea of an ultra-high-quality hardcover chronicle of a city or organization’s<br />
past. These exceptional books were also designed to raise funds for a partnering organization. As of 2020,<br />
<strong>HPN</strong>books has published more than 200 titles, while raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for its many<br />
partnering groups.<br />
Now a woman-owned company, Ledge Media has further developed their network and incorporated many<br />
new modern technologies including embedding video into printed materials. Ledge Media is a leading-edge<br />
multimedia company, now headquartered in Jackson, Wyoming, with its parent company, FRE-Enterprises. Its<br />
origins can be traced back to 1973, where <strong>HPN</strong>books, based in San Antonio, Texas, was helping businesses<br />
and historical societies tell their stories in the most compelling ways possible.<br />

shipment we couldn’t have been more pleased. The photography is stunning which compliments<br />
the writing and history. You and the other contributors have created a masterpiece!<br />
Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put forth to complete this. We are proud and<br />
excited to share your talents.”<br />
- Davis County Commission<br />
“I wanted to let you know that we received our Coastal Visions of Galveston County coffee table<br />
books early last week - and it’s magnificent! Thank you for all your efforts in putting together<br />
such a beautifully produced book, as you promised it would be.”<br />
- Vice President Marketing, Better Business Bureau of Greater Houston and South Texas<br />
“Being in the financial services industry, it is often difficult to provide a tangible gift that is<br />
perceived to have value as well as provide us with the marketing benefits we are looking for –<br />
the history books filled this void.”<br />
