Why partner with us?
By providing books for the home, to preschool children in the marginalised communities, you are investing in helping children thrive academically and socially, and develop positive habits of mind.
- Opportunities to involve staff, volunteers and children in giving
- Equip the next generation with the foundation for a life of learning
- Qualifying donations will receive a Section 18A receipt
- BEE Level 1: 100% black beneficiaries
Research shows that having books at home has major academic and social benefits on young children from birth. It’s the single biggest indicator of academic success, more so than socio economic status.
Access to books positively impacts on the reading achievement of economically disadvantaged children.
Children who own a book are 15 times more likely to read above the level expected for their age.
