Encouraging reading from a young age
Reading from an early age has been linked to higher success in career progression, higher confidence and a higher level of ambitious goal setting.
As it stands in 2020, 1.2 million children are considered to be living in poverty in Australia
Children who read from a young age have a higher chance of breaking this cycle and continuing on to advance their education and employment opportunities
Your donations go towards buying and distributing books to children who need them most!
31% of Australian families don’t have the financial resources to purchase books for their children to read on a regular basis due to the rising costs of living.
Children who slip through the cracks of education are more likely to leave school early and fall into an unskilled workforce and live on the verge of or under the poverty line in the future.
