Statement:
We are fundraising for Room to Read because we believe that world change starts with educated children.
We feel that there is a strong synchronization between Room to Read's vision of a world where all children can realize their full potential through quality education and contribute to their local communities and the world by investing in the future of the world's children.
By focusing on literacy and gender equality in education, Room to Read transforms the lives of millions of children in low-income communities. Working in collaboration with local communities, partner organizations and governments, they help primary school children develop literacy skills and a habit of reading, and support girls to complete secondary school with the relevant life skills to succeed in school and beyond.

Your fundraising will make a significant difference: 
We want to ensure every child has access to a high-quality education, with appropriate grade-level texts, a library budding with books, and a safe classroom with teachers helping them resist pressure to drop out for work or marriage. We're creating world change that helps historically low-income communities break the cycle of poverty by improving literacy rates and ensuring students get one step closer to graduation day and the lives they choose for themselves.
