Sabre's supporters have been consistently impressed over the years by two measures important to donors:
- Cost-effectiveness - Sabre's lean staffing and no-frills operation mean that donations go into substantive programs and not administration.
- Program Scope and Focus - each 20-ft container-load shipped has a fair market value of between $250,000 to $750,000 (sometimes more), depending on the kind of books; a 40-ft container holds approximately 12,000 to 16,000 tertiary level books. Because Sabre ships titles in multiple copies, each and every student can have a text.
*This figure includes pro-rated: book procurement, shipment preparation and freight costs.
