54% funded! Thank you for all your support!

Dear friends of World Kid Lit,

¡Gracias! Thank you! Shukran! Misaotra anao!

Thanks to you and all our generous supporters, we have now raised £1070 for our community project, World Kid Lit. That's 54% of our £2000 target, and it means we can ...

* offer two free school events, with a Read the World book bundle introducing young people to stories, poetry and non-fiction from five continents.

Find out here about our schools workshops and events, and how you can nominate a school:

* offer two additional Read the World book bundles, on top of the ten bundles we had already secured funding for, meaning we'll be sending out books every month for the rest of this year. Please keep donating to this fund as we would love to send a school a book bundle every month in 2027!

* pay our lovely judges of the Schools' International Reading Award! And pay for the postage to send out all the gorgeous global and translated children's books that make up the prize book bundles

Find out more about our SIRA award and please share the details with a school near you! https://worldkidlit.org/international-reading-award/

We really believe that children deserve to see themselves and their diverse identities represented in the books they encounter in schools, and they deserve the rich diversity of styles of books that we get from reading the world. Please keep telling your friends and colleagues about us, and help us reach our £2000 funding goal

Thank you!

Ruth and Team World Kid Lit
