In the picturesque mountains of Intibucá, Honduras, where vibrant culture meets breathtaking landscapes, a quiet revolution is taking place. This revolution is not marked by violence or upheaval; rather, it is a movement that seeks to transform lives through the simple yet profound act of reading. In this blog, we will explore how the power of reading is unlocking the potential of the next generation in Intibucá, a region where access to education and literacy has historically been limited.
The Reading Program is helping the students install a portal in their minds to access a limitless world via recreational reading. Unlocking the Potential of the Next Generation through the Power of Reading.
Lifelong Learning
Our goal is to create and stimulate the habit of reading, it is a gift that keeps on giving throughout one's life. When children develop a love for reading from an early age, they are more likely to become lifelong learners. They view reading not as a chore but as a source of pleasure and enrichment.
We are excited to announce a significant achievement from the 2023 Reading Program, where participants from across Intibucá had the opportunity to participate. This year, we embarked on a remarkable journey:
* 436 teachers
* 247 schools
* 18,599 students
A special thanks to the United States Department of State for being part of the sponsors of this project that is impacting thousands of lives.
