Can you imagine a childhood without books? Without the joy of comic books, stories of adventures, fairytales or riddles? Or doing research papers to finish high school without the privilege of reference books?
“All of our teacher evaluations and student evaluations say over and over, ‘If we had books to read and reinforce our classes, we could advance much faster,’ “ says Emmanuela, Restavek Freedom’s Director of the Southwest Region. “We need books in English for our adult students and French and Kreyol for our younger students and our community. So, we have started building shelves at the Learning Center and dreaming of a library.”
Books for students of all ages can help students grow in their literacy and knowledge and make jobs and degrees not just a dream, but reality. Will you help us fill the shelves of our library?
