Let's Read to Rise

We aim to promote youth literacy in under-resourced communities in South Africa by inspiring children to read and give them access to new, age-appropriate, high quality and inspirational reading books. 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 focus on children in the foundational phase and conduct a fun, interactive 50 minute classroom programme with every class where every child gets to take home their own new reading book. We believe that children who love to read, will excel at school and go on to become constructive members of society. It all starts with reading.
