Description
READ TO RISE is a registered non-profit organisation, founded in 2013, with the aim of making a significant impact in improving youth literacy in South Africa. As our name suggests, we believe that every child needs to be able to read in order to rise in their educational and personal development. We are an official partner of the national Department of Basic Education who have endorsed our programmes.
The problem we face in our under-resourced communities is that our learners are not reading enough. Children in Grades 1-4 should be reading 40-50 books per year. In schools in our disadvantaged communities, children are reading only 1-2 books per year. Two troubling realities contribute to this low level of reading, 90% of schools do not have adequately stocked libraries with relevant books. In addition, most children have never owned a book and there are no books in their homes.
By buying this book you ensure that an underprivileged child gets an Oaky book as well.
