Teaching Reading in Poor Communities in Jakarta

Dear friend,

In our latest update, we wrote you about our collaboration with Yayasan Bina Berdaya Bangsa and our efforts to explore new ways to work together.

We are truly grateful for the positive outcomes that have emerged from our partnership with Yayasan Bina Berdaya Bangsa. This Community Development NGO has strong connections in one of Jakarta's most dense neighborhoods, where they provide valuable guidance and assistance to several teachers working in the area. Thanks to this collaboration, the knowledge from the Saya Suka Membaca program is being effectively applied in these schools. As a result, lots of children are now able to read and enjoy reading, which will have an impact on their future.

However, we remain committed to seeking new opportunities to collaborate with other organizations, especially in the more underprivileged parts of the city. Our goal is to raise awareness about our program and join forces with like-minded organizations that share our vision. Once again, we kindly ask for your help: If you know anyone who might be interested in supporting this project, please inform us. By doing so, we can train more teachers and reach out to children in the poorer communities of Jakarta.

Your continuous support means the a lot to us. It is an honor to work alongside you on this crucial project. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of these children and contribute to a brighter future for Indonesia!

Salam literasi, 

Stuart Patience
