Room to Read seeks to transform the lives of millions of children in developing countries by focusing on literacy and gender equality in education. Working with communities, partner organisations and governments, we develop literacy skills, a habit of reading, and support girls to complete school.
Welcome to 100 Girls Back to School fundraising page!
My goal is to raise enough money to help at least 100 girls in South East Asia, India and Nepal to go to school. That would be 100 girls x USD$250 per year x 10years.
For the period April 1 - June 30th, all funds raised though this page will be dedicated to school scholarships for girls in Laos. The amount will be matched dollar for dollar by the Brule Family from New York, as part of their global initiative to double (up to $1 million) the amount raised worldwide foruntil June 30th, 2009.
