Our project continues to evolve in unexpected but marvelous directions. We are very proud to announce in this report our partnership with We Love Reading (other GlobalGiving member organization) in an initiative called 1 MILLION ASMAAS.
"Imagine a world with 1 million trained local volunteers reading books for fun to children in their neighborhoods. An army of change-makers creating a generation of youth and children who enjoy and respect books and foster social responsibility, civic engagement and enhanced psycho-social well-being through the establishment of a library in every neighborhood in the world. By joining this collaboration you can implement the We Love Reading training into your programming and show the story of the We Love Reading ambassador Asmaa Rashed in the multi-award winning film The Neighborhood Storyteller to engage your audience. Together, let’s make this dream a reality."
Yes, you understood correctly, if you are a nonprofit you can add to your programming the We Love Reading training and use the film The Neighborhood Storyteller to inspire the communities you serve. Or if you are a changemaker, you can take the We Love Reading training and use The Neighborhood Storyteller to inspire people in your community to became We Love Reading ambassadors. AND ALL OF THIS WITH NO COST TO YOU.
