Join us for Summer Reading Festivals

Let's make a lasting impact by giving every child access to the magic of reading books!

📚 Did you know that many children in Ghana, The Gambia, Uganda and Sint Maarten have never experienced the pleasure of owning a book? This calls for action! To take the next step in our mission to give every child the joy of reading, we have 30,000 books to hand out, made available by Lemniscaat. In addition, we are going to organize reading festivals to further stimulate the pleasure of reading. These festivals will be held in June and July 2024. It takes only €2,50 per book! How many children will you help? Learn more
