September 8th is International Literacy Day. Investing in literacy and kids' education is the best investment we can make in their growth and development. Your support recently helped provide reading sessions for 30 students at Stella Maris Primary School.
Since 1967, International Literacy Day (ILD) celebrations have taken place annually around the world to remind the public of the importance of literacy as a matter of dignity and human rights, and to advance the literacy agenda towards a more literate and sustainable society. -https://www.unesco.org/en/days/literacy-day.
Thank you for your support in education & literacy for the future leaders in Sierra Leone. Making a monthly donation is the most effective way to help future leaders get their education, but every dollar donated makes a difference!
If you haven't had the chance to sign up for a recurring donation yet, we warmly welcome your ongoing support. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.
Matching Alert-From Sept. 12-16, when you give up to $50 to support education, GlobalGiving will match your generosity at 50% for the #LittleByLittle campaign. Help us spread the word: share this post with your family and friends to let them know that little acts of kindness can make a big impact!
Warm regards,
Amy and the Develop Africa team
