Two Half Marathons in a Month · 11 October 2009

READ International addresses the lack of educational resources in schools in Tanzania, creating libraries and supporting young people in skills and capacity development. To date we have sent 1.5 millions books to East Africa and created 94 secondary school libraries.

Story

Hello Guys,

 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page and hopefully you will sponsor me!

My target is £600, but I would love to make a little more than this. I am raising money for a charity called READ International http://www.readinternational.org.uk/ which aims to provide textbooks and reading material to children in Africa. So far they have delievered over 300,000 books to school throughout Tanzania!

This is crucial to the Africa as giving aid of throwing money at the problem does not, as Afrcia is the only contient that has gotten POORER over the LAST 30 YEARS this has been due to many different issues, but we are all aware that education is a key to Africa`s development.

 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my sponsorship page!
