Volunteering n Zambia · 8 July 2017

It’s a well-known fact that poverty stems from lack of education. Literacy rates in sub-Saharan Africa are as low as 15% which means that education for many children is just not happening. The Book Bus gets children reading so they can climb onto the learning ladder and improve their chances in life

Story

We are off to Zambia in July to volunteer with the Book Bus's reading scheme there.  Between us, we have to raise £3,000 for the cost of our stay - books, craft materials, local support etc.  Please help us raise money for this excellent cause.  Over 125 million children around the world are still unable to read.  We hope our small contribution will help towards reducing that number.
