As of October 2012, they've put over 229,000 e-books and the life-changing, power-creating ideas contained within them into the hands of 1,000 children in sub-Saharan Africa.
Worldreader’s mission is to provide 1 Million kids in the developing world with E-books by 2015.
200 million kids in Africa live in areas where access to books is non-existent or completely insufficient. Schools are overflowing, but classrooms and libraries are empty of printed books.
Using e-readers loaded with thousands of American, European, and African e-books, we have to date reached 3,000 kids with over 200,000 e-books, so that the life-changing ideas contained within them would transform their futures.
Those children now read more, read better, and will be their county’s doctors, peacemakers, scientists, poets, and leaders.
Vote for Worldreader between 11/27/12 and 12/4/12. It's an opportunity for Worldreader to win up to $1 MILLION and to increase 'Books for all' awareness globally like never before.
