Children
The Gift of Reading®
Offer a little imagination to a poor child in your region by buying him a brand new book!
With the Gift of Reading® project, our aim is to: • Encourage young people to stay in school and prevent illiteracy in children aged 0–12 from underprivileged neighbourhoods. • Reach parents with weak reading skills, whom we can also help through the Info-Alpha line: 1-800-361-9142. The magic of the project is that it allows you to have a direct impact on the daily life of a child from your region. A book of one's own can make all the difference when the social and economic environment is not conducive to reading. Last May, 29,614 children received The Gift of Reading®.
