One week into the new year, and we’ve posted a new We Give Books video that highlights many of the effort’s key accomplishments from 2011.
We launched We Give Books hoping it would prove an innovative way to invite others to learn more about great literacy organizations making a difference around the world. Our first goal was to bring together a digital library of great children’s books, and invite parents, teachers, and other adults to help put books in the hands of children who don't have them, simply by reading online.
One of the great joys of our work last year was discovering the degree to which the idea of sharing books and promoting literacy spread from something that one person might do with one child to something a teacher might do with her class, and then to something that brought together whole communities.
Please check out the video here, and—while you’re at it—please feel free to forward the link to others who might want to know about this always free, always available Pearson Foundation program.
